Not at all.

However:

 1. Look at the About window gives the cache location.
 2. 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8689780/how-to-clear-the-cache-in-netbeans
    is helpful.
 3. Clearing the cache clears the problem.

Is it worth bug reporting corrupt cache issues next time it happens ?

IMO. If you have a reproducible case, then yes; file an issue.

Otherwise, everyone (at least anyone who might read the report and have a shot at fixing it) already know the cache sometimes gets corrupted.

Thanks

*Subject: *Sudden erratic behaviour by Netbeans 12.0

Hi,

After months of using NetBeans 12.0 it has started behaving erratically.

Specifically:

 1. A long established and unchanged Maven project re-compiled and
    produced the expected .jar but two source files were flagged as
    errored but no line in either file had an error flag.
 2. None of the other projects (at least a dozen !) that depend on the
    project in question could see the project.

Clean and build doesn’t help.

Closing and re-opening the project doesn’t help.

Questions:

 1. How do I clear the NetBeans cache ?
 2. Has anyone else seen anything like this ?

Regards

David Gradwell
