[ BUILD # : 200408191352 ] [ JDK VERSION : J2SE 1.4.2_05 ] I am able to reproduce this at will... 1. Have a web project imported and CVS'd. 2. Attempted to CVS remove a folder (META-INF). This horks but may be a separate bug since from what I can tell it is empty on CVS server and when I try to remove it it deletes my local but fails to remove from CVS. 3. [OPTIONAL STEP] I then open and close some class folders and soon enough the system chugs and presto, exception. I suspect that #47438 is somehow related.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: invalid constant pool type: 13 at org.netbeans.modules.classfile.ConstantPool.getConstantPoolEntry(ConstantPool.java:236)
This exception is (or was) thrown when a bad constant pool is referenced, which probably happened when CVS "horked". The IllegalArgumentException is now caught during classfile loading, and an IOException is thrown instead, which the ClassUpdater (should) handle properly. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 47438 ***
