Description Jan Becicka 2010-11-29 13:36:25 UTC 
1. Create class "a"
2. Rename class "a" to "A"
3. Now I see 2 classes in Explorer: "a" and "A" instead of just "A"
4. try to delete class "A" -> both nodes (a,A) are deleted.

I was working on a similar fix for bug 192222 on Friday. The following commit shall make the behaviour better: e1169459c473 I have however problems to verify that on any Mac OSX or find out what is wrong. There is new "testCaseSensitiveFolderRename" it would be beneficial to know if it works or why it fails.
Comment 2 Jaroslav Tulach 2010-12-02 09:23:25 UTC 
The root of the problem is that File.equals(..) and File.hashCode are case sensitive on MacOSX, while they shall be insensitive like on Windows.

Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201012070001* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress)

User: Jaroslav Tulach <jtulach@netbeans.org>
Log: #192637: Don't call File.equals and File.hashCode directly. Use Utils wrapper methods. They are modified to work properly on MacOSX and ignore the case of files.
