Any solutions to the "Background scanning of projects..." hanging
issue?
I know I’m not the only one to see this problem as there are multiple bugs filed in both the old and new bug tracking systems for this.
I’m using 8.2 on Mac OS 10.14.4 with only the C/C++ plugin enabled. I’m building for RaspberryPi and I was fine until yesterday afternoon.
I went to start a build and the background scanning started, which despite being “background” prevents any other function except for the
IDE from functioning. It’s also using almost all my CPU and even if I exit Netbeans it just starts up again shortly after restarting.
Any solutions/suggestions?
Tom.

Probably you added those files outside the IDE and then switched to the
IDE. That switching is what may have thrown things off. Maybe have all that
done outside the IDE before opening into the IDE, if that makes sense.

I tried that, it worked fine until I added an existing project. When I deleted that and rebuilt the project from scratch it worked fine up until I added a .h file to the “Header Files” section under the project. So I deleted the cache and user
directories and started over again, but didn’t add the .h file and it’s fine. The project works fine without it, I only included it since it has some definitions in it I was always looking up.I suspect there are references in it that NB couldn’t
resolve.
Thanks for the tips.

Probably close NetBeans, remove cachedir and userdir (see the About box for
their locations) and restart. If you can send log files etc, that will
help, otherwise it's impossible to know what the problem is.

I tried everything suggested, increasing the heap size, Mark & Sweep GC, etc. It’s been stuck on 29% for three hours now.
I’m developing in C for a Pi Zero. I have a half dozen projects, each with a single C file in them. There’s no way this should be occurring.

Here are two items to look into to help understand where the problem is in
