I reported refactoring issues here more than a year(2?) ago. While
someone did respond and provided a fix, it seems like the "fix" was just
to suppress the issue(exceptions) and not fix the issue itself.
Refactoring on Netbeans is completely and utterly broken and has been
for a **VERY** long time now.
Along with the editor completely bugging out by highlighting errors that
don't actually exist and import/code completion breaking. A
multi-threading bug, maybe? But I digress.

In all versions of Netbeans > 12.0, I regularly experience several
different problems when trying to refactor code. Anyone else running
into these issues?
1.When moving a class, NB will scramble the import statements of
classes that depend on the moved class.
2.When moving a class, NB will throw the following exception:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke
"java.util.Collection.contains(Object)" because "sourceFiles" is null

3. When renaming a class, NB will sometimes rename the file, but fail
to rename the actual class.
The refactoring problems are making development quite difficult.
