Comment 3 rmichalsky 2009-05-04 15:49:10 UTC 
Caused by IAE at org.netbeans.modules.java.hints.errors.ErrorFixesFakeHint.create(ErrorFixesFakeHint.java:173)
Comment 4 Jan Lahoda 2009-05-04 18:15:21 UTC 
The cause for this is, IMO, that an "old" IDE is used to develop "new" version of NB.org sources. A new constant was
added to ErrorFixesFakeHint, and a corresponding entry was added to the layer. But, the old version (from the "old"
development IDE) does not understand the new constant. apisupport.project tries to load the new layer using the old
version of the class (from the "old" development IDE), mixing run time and design time. It is a responsibility of
apisupport.project, IMO, to solve any side-effects of this mixture, including reasonable handling of any exception that
is thrown. Currently, IOException and ClassNotFoundException are ignored, but all exceptions should be ignored in
BadgingSupport.getInstanceLabel, IMO.
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2009-05-04 18:34:01 UTC 
Agreed, this code must be very defensive.
Comment 6 rmichalsky 2009-05-06 09:49:57 UTC
