Well something has changed since 6.1.

Something must have changed to eat more memory from my system.
Now there is very tedious to wait for the scanning task to finished.

After a while code completion stops and it says scanning but nothing happens. Solution, restart NB.

also starting Glassfish from NB may be a problem. After a few deploys in GF the most common solution to be able to continue working is to restart my computer. This has been tha cas 3 times in 2 days now.

And under Tools > plugins, I can not find anywhere to turn the Task-scanning off.

regards

Maybe in 6.1 it was there. In 6.5 It's under Tools > Options > Tasklist

Bottom line is this *needs to go* somehow. It's imperitive that it be a switch. especially for c++/ php developers trying to use netbeans.

I have a couple of sshfs mounted directories in a subpath an netbeans scans them *indefinitely*

I don't care what any developer says, not having this as a switch that I can turn off or at least defer is horribly bad application design.

The best case scenario would be for a context-menu on the files panel to allow for selection of directories for scanning in separate threads - as long as they play nice and don't use too much resources. noone likes a slow IDE. I should be able to run this when I'm asleep if anything...

I think allowing users to exclude directories from project scanning was
mentioned in this forum when the din about the lousy NB performance was
loudest a few months ago. I think it's a great idea - I wonder if it
made it into developers plans' for improving scanning performance for
6.8. Petr pointed Dvorak pointed to performance work going on for 6.8
(http://wiki.netbeans.org/EditorPlan68) and reading it superficially, I
don't see anything of this nature. Perhaps you can add a comment to one
of the major bugs that will be addressed - e.g.:

- it looks like people are genuinely concerned, I've posted in one of the other threads and gotten great feedback as well.

Yeah, I think excluding directories would be a great help to projects like ours where we have the source and jars for each library we use.

Well, actually there is a solution for this!!!

Right Click on the project folder and select "properties"

Then you may select the "Ignored Folders"

In this you may include certain folders, first try to include all the folders , and try clicking on okay. For the first time it may not finish scanning, but after restarting the IDE if you select the particular project again , scanning will be fine and will be done with in seconds!!! And then you may try to deselect the folders (one by one will be better). And after that it will be done!!!

Thanks!!!

Pardon, I don't quite follow you there. Are you selecting the project
from the files or projects window? In either case, I'm not seeing such
an option. Can it be set for all nb projects? Alternately, how is such
a scan manually initiated?

Actually it is from the "project" window. If you right click on a root directory of a project ( the icon with a 'php' ), you will be able to see the "properties" of a project. In that there is ignored folders. And the rest of the things to do is already written by me. I think it is a bug in Netbeans. I think it can only be set for each project separately. And if we remove that ignored folders, only then the scan will be done.
