I've noticed (on cafe project) that even if original file (not symlink) is open in editor, IDE opens symlink to this file in a new tab (instead of activating existent one). The original file is cafe/unit/parse/common/inc/syntaxname.h The symlink is cafe/group/core_fe/intel-S2/lnk/tempactual.h Moreiver, we have a hyperlink problem there, which shhould be probably filed separately: if I click on a string_name declaration of syntax_name_component class (syntaxname.h:135), Im hyperlinked to the same line into symlink.
fixed by http://hg.netbeans.org/cnd-main/rev/3ca9cbbf23d5 The fix introduced getting canonical file object in the EDT, which looks frightening. However, this is asked before opening the file => isFolder/isData for this file object is called first => it already resolved its canonical delegate => the latter has been already cached (as well as the entire chain) => no network operations will occur in EDT One can switch this off for remote via -J-Dnb.cosredirector.remote=false
