Description

It appears that the deprecated FindBugs plugin support is causing the rest of Source->Inspect not to work either.   Very easy to reproduce.

When I try to define a configuration via the Source-Inspect… dialog, it lets me define it and hit the “Inspect” button, but the results tab simply shows “Required Plugin Missing” even when the configuration I’ve defined and run uses the built-in “Netbeans Java Hints".  As a matter of fact, you don’t even have to define a configuration - just select the “Default” one - which uses the “Netbeans Java Hints” analyzer from the drop-down and hit “Inspect”.  You’ll still see (at least I do) the result of “Required Plugin Missing”.
