Description gualtiero65 2014-01-10 12:01:43 UTC

It sometimes necessary to clear the project cache when NetBeans get confused , for example when significant external changes are performed (like git actions on command line).

Today the only solution is to manually delete the cache dir completely, which also remove other information like maven repository indexes.

It would be nice to have a function (menu or popup) to delete and rebuild from scratch selected project cache.

java related? I suppose by project cache, the scanned jars/source root indexes are meant.

Yes. I'm referring to Java based projects.
