what are your filter settings for the tasklist? see the forth button from top in the tasklists toolbar. Might be that "Issues Only" is selected...

I don't have any filter, I already tried defining different filters and always got the same result.
Comment 5 Tomas Stupka 2011-05-18 08:03:35 UTC 
just realized that it is a c/c++ you got there - the tasks lists todo scanner is plugged into the netbeans parsing/indexing infrastructure, which isn't activated by default in c++ apps. To get this working you have to set "Support indexing of non C++ files in projects" in main menu > options > c++ > project options. 

obviously, it isn't evident for users that the option has to be set and we should deal with it, but first we need to know if the suggested solution fixed your problem...

Thank you Tomas,

That did the trick. I think you should change that option name for something more easy to understand.

Thanks again.

reassigning to cnd for further evaluation

see also #190601 and #191190 - already has a few duplicates

simple workaround exists, this probably isn't a p2 defect ...
