Debug fails in NetBeans 11

Not sure if this should be considered a micromanager error or a netbeans error.

When trying to debug MMStudio in Apache NetBeans 11.0 Micro-Manager crashes with a null pointer exception at

micro-manager/mmstudio/src/main/java/org/micromanager/internal/MainFrame.java

Line 380 in 420ed35

    
           snapButton_ = (JButton) QuickAccessFactory.makeGUI(mmStudio_.plugins().getQuickAccessPlugins().get(

The cause of this can be traced further back to the fact that while the classloader does find many scijava and imagej plugins, it does not find any of the quickaccess plugins:

micro-manager/mmstudio/src/main/java/org/micromanager/internal/pluginmanagement/DefaultPluginManager.java

Line 127 in 420ed35

loadPlugins(PluginFinder.findPluginsWithLoader(

When using the exact same project settings in Netbeans 9.0 everything works fine. I'm not sure what causes this discrepancy.

I think that I run into the same problem on occasion in Netbeans 8.2. I don't understand enough of the Scijava stuff and class path/loader issues to trouble shoot this.

Just tested with Netbeans 11 myself, and to my great surprise, MM build, compiled, and ran fine even using Java 11 (rel. 5 from AdoptOpenJDK). Good sign! Dealbreaker for me was that the "code injection" green button never became active, but that seems to be more of a Netbeans bug.
