This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
I suggest adding a confirmation dialog when clicking on the "resynchronize eclipse projects" so that if by accident one selects this function this action could be cancelled.
