Hello, I've been using NetBeans for the last 4 and a half years. I can honestly say that NetBeans is, by far, the most usable IDE for C/C++ development. Well, at least this is my opinion and I've been working with Visual Studio XXXX and Eclipse as well. None of the last mentioned IDEs managed to "enslave" me as NetBeans did :) I'm working on a quite large project (www.rtmpd.com). And I always work with the bleeding edge NetBeans. However, I noticed that the cnd completion engine decreased in its quality, rendering it almost unusable (see the screen-shoot). I'm also experiencing issues with forward class declarations. It almost never gets the right include file. Is including the header files(s) with the forward declaration, not the one who is actually defining the prototype of the class. And when presented with the list of alternatives I end up having 9-10 of them for the same class, except the right one :( I've tried to rebuild the completion caches from the IDE (right click on the project -> Code Assistance -> Reparse project). Also tried the brute force approach by completely deleting the ~/.netbeans directory and erase everything in /tmp directory on boot time. Nothing seems to help. Also, when it works, there is a big latency when providing the list of available options (up to 4 seconds). Could you please investigate the problems more deeply? My productivity totally depends on your efforts and switching to another IDE is not an option for me. I'm available to provide assistance any time. Also I can compile the whole IDE from scratch if this is necessary. I'm willing to do almost anything to help you help me and the rest of the community having the same issue. About my environment: Project I'm working on: svn co --username anonymous --password "" https://svn.rtmpd.com/crtmpserver/trunk crtmpserver NetBeans version: NetBeans IDE 6.9 RC1 (Build 201005242201) OS: Mac OS X 10.6.3 Java version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02-279-10M3065) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 16.3-b01-279, mixed mode) For tests, you can extract my project from svn with the provided svn command and open all netbeans projects inside builders/netbeans/osx (relative to the directory where you extracted the sources) Best regards, Andrei

I believe all users understands, "Reparse Project" very dangerous menu item if 2 or more projects are opened in IDE. It reparses current project and deletes code model in other projects fully (of course you can select all projects in Projects tab and call "Reparse Project" for all projects)
I understand that... That is why I completely erased my ~/.netbeans directory and re-opened all my projects again. Nothing seems to help. I presume that ~/.netbeans is the only place in which NetBeans keeps his stuff. Am I right about that?

You can clear only CND cache: .netbeans/var/cache/cnd/ This folder contains parsing information.
Andrei, thanks for detailed report and Netbeans projects in the repository. It seems first scenario was fixed in: Bug 187070 - do not use findDeclaration() and findClassifier() methods for model resolving Can you check development build? If your problem is fixed please vote for including Bug 187070 in the NB 8.9.1. It seems the second scenario cannot be reproduced on current sources. Could you provide another screen shot for second scenario?

Vladimir, We can arrange for a TeamViewer session if you like, to see it in action. Also I also have many other observations that I want to present. Let me know if you are interested by sending me an email on my private email Cheers, Andrei
just to summarize: 1) source files in include completion was resolved by fixing extensions ("cpp" was in the list of headers extensions) => needs to check discovery logic, because Andrei didn't add it manually 2) confirmed list of useless class forward in completion list
