Going with mouse over to get evaluated variable, or switching between views (watches, variables), cause very often complete deadlock.
Created attachment 21875 [details] thread dump
In J2ME project
reproduced even in j2se - see issue 58365
Seems like there is connection between evaluation of array.lenght variable. For other types of variable debugging works does not cause deadlock
decreasing priority, it's corner case that needs to be more evaluated before any action will be done. Adding 4.1_WAIVER_REQUEST - because it definitelly won't be fixed for 4.1 and RELNOTE.
I provided fresh install, applied all patches with their recent versions and this issue does not appear now. I gonna close this as works for me. If the same issue is reproduced again, I'll open again.
Verified ... and Closing all issues resolved into NetBeans 6.7 and earlier.
