Happens in trunk as well. Fresh full build (incl. ergonomics and most functionality disabled initially).
Comment 3 Antonin Nebuzelsky 2012-11-02 11:29:47 UTC 
Raising to P2. Right after first start of full build (incl. ergonomics) the Options filter is not usable.
Comment 4 Theofanis Oikonomou 2012-11-02 14:57:27 UTC 
reproducible in NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 20121102-d2725f319b51)

From the Logger it seems that a hints related key (LBL_WrongStringComparison) cannot be found. While investigating it turned out that several similar cases (actually 8) could not be found in the ide.ergonomics.java.Bundle, all related to java.hints module. It turned out that the key values registered in several Bundle files were spread across multiple lines using the "\" character. 

I am not sure if this is an error in ide.ergonomics but I was able to eliminate the NPE with this fix: http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/6a10ecadc358

If this can be verified I could then transplant into branch releases/release73_beta2_base

Thank you
Comment 5 Antonin Nebuzelsky 2012-11-02 15:08:08 UTC 
I will verify now.
Comment 6 Antonin Nebuzelsky 2012-11-02 15:22:10 UTC 
Verified on trunk. You can proceed with integration to beta2. Thanks.
