The watches window is refreshing itself every 1-2 seconds, while I'm debugging a webapplication using glassfish server. This is especially annoying when I try to view fields of a class, because if I open the class using the + button, it's closed on the next refresh. After a few refreshes it is opened again than closed again, and this goes on and on. Of course this is happening while the program is stopped, I not touching anything. Note: The Local Variables window is fine.
Does not seem to be always reproducible. I've occasionally seen this, but now I'm not able to reproduce. Adding RANDOM keyword. Does this refreshing occurs for you always? Or just under some circumstances? Exact reproducible steps are highly appreciated.
Well unfortunately I'm working on a single webapp right now. With this project the refreshing is always happening when I run it in debug mode. I'll try what happens if I create a new project.
I believe the problem is that when another thread is running in the application, like a timer thread, each time the thread is awakened, the watch window refreshes itself. It's possible to view the watches if you suspend all the threads in your app, but this is a real pain.
I think you can close this one, I haven't been able to reproduce it since reporting.
Seems to be no longer reproducible, closing as suggested by the reporter.
Verified ... and Closing all issues resolved into NetBeans 6.7 and earlier.
