Geertjan Wielenga commented on NETBEANS-1412:
---------------------------------------------
Well, you can suggest it on the mailing list and if someone wants to analyze
this and fix this, great. I don't suspect there'll be many/any who will want to
do this, though I may be wrong of course. I have never seen any evidence that
deactivated plugins cause performance problems. Someone who does and who can
reproduce it and who can analyze the problem and fix it could look at it.
> NetBeans should not scan jars for deactivated plugins
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NETBEANS-1412
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1412
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ide - Performance, platform - Plugin Manager
> Affects Versions: Next
> Reporter: Christian Lenz
> Priority: Major
>
> When I deactivate plugins, they will still be inside the folder
> *C:\Users\Chrl\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\8.2\modules*. When opening NetBeans I
> got over 100 warnings of dependencies that will upgraded:
> {code}
> WARNING [org.netbeans.core.modules]: had to upgrade dependencies for module
> arduino: added = [module org.netbeans.modules.projectuiapi.base/1 > 1.78.0,
> module org.openide.filesystems.nb, module org.openide.filesystems.compat8]
> removed = []; details: [Separate projectuiapi into desktop and NetBeans
> independent and dependent parts, Separation of desktop and cleanup]
> {code}
> So yes I installed arduino but I deactivated it. I deactivated a lot more
> like ruby and atmel and all are scanned. So for me, I don't want to deinstall
> those plugins, because I will loose the history of all plugins that I added
> months or years ago.
> So in my understanding, netbeans scans all jars inside of the modules folder
> and this takes time. Not that much, maybe some ms but if you have 150 addons
> installed, like me and NetBeans needs round about 20ms for that jar to scan
> at starting the IDE and give the warning, doesn't matter whether it is
> activated or not, it will increase the starting time. So 150 * 20ms = 3s. Of
> course this is not much but preventable.
> I would prefer to move deactivated plugins into a sub folder called
> deactivated and exclude them from scanning, if this is possible, How does
> that sounds?
> Cheers
> Chris
