NetBeans Dev 4.2 Q Build - New problems crop up

After fixing the problem outlined here I ran Update Center and picked up quite a few interesting bits. I then allowed the system to restart itself, and when it did, I got Unexpected Exception: ArrayIndexOutOfBounds. What follows is the exception trace.

I got rid of the problem by, once again, removing the .netbeans/dev cache area. But this time I won't copy anything over. I'll just go back in by hand and set everything up, such as my projects and Runtime resources.

OK. I'm trying to add a project back in and I get the new dialog for locating a file or directory. I don't know about this new way of selecting items. Old habits die hard, and I keep wanting to use the mouse in the middle section to click down to the final target, but it doesn't work consistently. I do succeed via typing and tabbing (ala the bash shell). I remember reading about this new 'feature' hitting NetBeans Real Soon Now. I finally reach the project (swingx) and when I select it, I get another unexpected exception, NoClassDefFoundError. The text for that exception follows.

Well, I've reached the point where I've uninstalled the Q build and I'm starting over again to see where that leads me. More in the next post.
