Description Jesse Glick 2009-06-11 00:56:49 UTC 
It is undesirable for "ant compile" (or test-compile) to leave behind *.class files corresponding to sources which have
been deleted (or renamed). It is worse if it leaves behind entries in META-INF/generated-layer.xml, as these can lead to
runtime errors.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2009-06-11 01:45:19 UTC 
Attempting to fix in core-main #ec6cd43f5ba0; hope there will not be side effects.
Comment 2 Quality Engineering 2009-06-12 09:21:48 UTC 
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *200906120201* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress)

Log: #166888: turn off incremental builds for a module if it looks like a source file has been deleted.
Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2010-01-19 11:48:22 UTC 
contrib #1d7977c9a430 fixes an issue in j2ee.blueprints. This module creates build/gensrc and then compiles it (to build/classes), independently of src. CustomJavac.cleanUpStaleClasses caused problems sometimes:

ant -f contrib/j2ee.blueprints/build.xml clean netbeans
touch contrib/j2ee.blueprints/src/org/netbeans/modules/j2ee/blueprints/BluePrintsComponent.java
ant -f contrib/j2ee.blueprints/build.xml netbeans

=> failure, since Nbcatalog.class looks stale, so build/classes recreated, but then gensrc not found.
