last week I upgraded to Java 1.3.1 and NetBeans 3.2.1 (Build 98). Since then I have a problem when debugging java application: The debugger freezes my PC for seconds on end (mouse cursor doen't move, can't switch applications e.c). Then it works again normally for some time, then it happens again. All in all the behaviour is rather erratic. I have a Compaq Deskpro EN with 800mhz and 256k memory
This issue seems similarly as the description of problem in issue 14825 (JDK 1.3.1 & NetBeans 3.2.1, IDE hangs when debugging). You can try to change value of debugger's Classic switch from false to true (go to Tools menu/Options/Debugger Type/Default Debugging - properties). As in case of 14825, thread dump can help us to investigate the problem. Can you obtain and attach it, please ?
with the classic-option turned on it works with normal speed! A pity that this will no longer work in 1.4 (according to bug 14825). As to the dump: I'll try that, but I doubt that this will bring enlightenment. Because while the system blocks I can't switch to the consle. And when it works normal again, the dump is no longer useful.
It is the same sort of problems as described in issue 13953. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 13953 ***
