Description mienamoo 2011-11-15 12:54:24 UTC 
NetBeans build 201111130600
JDK 7 build 147

I was debugging a NetBeans platform application. On the Variables window, I clicked on the list to enter a new watch and then pressed Ctrl+Space to code complete. The following error occurred:

java.lang.StackOverflowError
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.lastEdit(CompoundEdit.java:88)
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.addEdit(CompoundEdit.java:128)
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.addEdit(CompoundEdit.java:138)
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.addEdit(CompoundEdit.java:138)

Could you please attach the whole stacktrace ... messages.log file ? Thanks in advance.

The full exception is:

SEVERE [global]
java.lang.StackOverflowError
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.lastEdit(CompoundEdit.java:88)
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.addEdit(CompoundEdit.java:128)
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.addEdit(CompoundEdit.java:138)
	at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.addEdit(CompoundEdit.java:138)
        ... (1019 more times at the same spot, hence the stack overflow)
[catch] at javax.swing.undo.CompoundEdit.addEdit(CompoundEdit.java:138)

I don't see any other relevant information in the messages.log file. I ran the IDE a few times with different scenarios, and no other warnings or errors appeared every time.

I also see the same exception when debugging just a very simple Java application, so it is not platform application specific.

The same exception happens whether I press Ctrl+Space directly in the table when editing the cell, or on the New Watch or Edit Watch dialogs.

I was looking at my old bugs, and this one caught my eye. So I tried it with NetBeans 7.2 build 201203280401, and I am not seeing the exception any more. So I guess it was resolved sometime since last November. :)
