Description

Following upgrade of Netbeans from v8.2 to v11 and running a java/maven project with many modules.

Go To Declaration no longer works correctly. The shortcut opens the correct class under Dependencies (ie the binary file) not the source file in another project. It still works correctly for files within the same JAR

I have tried without success to :

• Delete the cache
• Check the logs for errors (log file attached)
