Re: Is there any way to stop the scanning projects?

By scanning project files, IDE gathers information which are useful
later (i.e goto file / symbol, ...).

Scanning is designed to be interrupted by various requests originating
from the user gestures and actions, so it "should not" be too
bothersome. If scanning gets in your way too much or runs for a very
long time, then you either have a very very large project, allocated too
little memory to the IDE, or you hit some bug.

You may *attempt* to cancel scanning - and in fact if the scanning takes
unusually long (not proportional to your project size), click in the
status progress bar a attempt to cancel the scan. The IDE will wait for
some while and try to collect information about the scanning process and
then you'll be offered to file a bug report - file it please, since logs
attached may give a clue why the scan runs so often or so long.

> I can't STAND this "feature". I want to TURN OFF ALL SCANNING. No background scanning, no remote scanning. NO SCANNING!!!! Why isn't this an option in netbeans even after people have been complaining and asking about it since version 6? This is a major reason to use Eclipse instead of Netbeans, for me. To many burned processor cycles doing stuff I don't want it to be doing.
