I created java project and package inside it with main class. I performed all mentioned actions and none of them works, OutputWin for all of them says: Command completed. No files needed to be created, changed, or deleted. Finished. Java file is not badged as modified (needs compilation). When I executed compilation on a separate java file I got NullPointerException.

Nodes are not badged, since Looks do not support badging (yet) :-( Individual files can be compiled now, so degrading priority to P2.
Compilation works, badging still does not. Changing subject, lowering priority
Badging now works fine (error, main), but the out of date is not solved by the UI spec and it is not sure if it will be supprorted in the NB 4.0 or not. The framework for it is prepared in the JavaDataObjectLook. The added value of the out of date check is not very big, user has to compile always whole BuildTarget (in most cases all the sources) so it does not provide any value to her and it is quite expensive operation.
Verified.
