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.
After varying amounts of time the UI is not responsive to the mouse or keyboard. CPU is at tick-over. The window controls min/max still work. I have just noticed typing this text, that my German keyboard is suddenly just producing the standard US codes i.e. I type a Y but it comes out as a Z and vice versa. This may or may not be a related bug. I recently installed the support for European keyboards - maybe the baddie?
I guess it may be some kind of performance problem, EQ waiting for some network operations or I don't know what. Passing to perf guys. Reporter please add more information - dump of stack traces for threads at the moment when UI is not responsive. Messages.log file. Concerning keybord, I have no clue what may be going on.

Hi, I've created an attachment with the log files for the days in question. How do I get "dump of stack traces for threads at the moment when UI is not responsive" with Win XP Prof? A link to a troubleshooting page would do... The issue with the keyboard also occurred subsequently without NetBeans - please disregard this as a red herring.
Guide to capturing threaddump: http://qa.netbeans.org/bugzilla/generating-thread-dumps.html It doesn't seem like NB issue to me, reporter please verify it in otheres java application (demo application Nodepad can by used, it is located under JDK_HOME directory).
It would be helpful if someone would answer my question: How do I get "dump of stack traces for threads at the moment when UI is not responsive" with Win XP Prof? A link to a troubleshooting page would do... The error only happened once and is not reproducible. I only entered it in case someone had an 'aha!' effect about it. I'll just close it now and if it occurs often or becomes reproducible I'll open it again as a new bug.
johnmuir, see the link mentioned above http://qa.netbeans.org/bugzilla/generating-thread-dumps.html, it answers your question. On Win it's doable by pressing Ctrl+Break on console window (run nb.exe instead of netbeans.exe)
You can also use the java web start application if you don't launch IDE from console. The address of application is also mentioned on the linked page
