This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
As reported at nbusers@netbeans.org: Continue is used much more often then start debugging. But Start debugging is F5 and continue is CTRL-F5. Therefore it would be better to swap these shortcuts.
Jano, can you please consider this change?
How about F5 starts debugging and also continues, as happens in other debuggers I have used to (Visual Studio). It does not (usually) make much sense to start another debugging session when you have one already running.
fuerte is correct. I prefer for F5 key-bindings to have two meanings: 1) When program is running, F5 means continue 2) When program isn't, F5 means Start process
There is an associated issue #90133. We can change the shortcut according to the resolution of issue #90133.
The reason for the issue is fixed, if there are other issues with shortcuts in debugger see issue #90133 (especially the third post) *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 90133 ***
