Introduction
The plugin provides a tight integration of the results of a FindBugs (TM) run with the NetBeans infrastructure. The UI is modeled after the refactoring view from NetBeans.
Additionally a toolbar icon is provided for easy access to the functionality. Configuration of the typical FindBugs (TM) options can be done via NetBeans option system. All necessary modules can be downloaded from this site (.zip) or via an updatecenter logic found at https://sqe.dev.java.net/updatecenters/nbheaven-updatecenter.xml.
At the moment the updatecenter hosts the plugin and the necessary library wrappers for the FindBugs (TM) library (LGPL), Apache BCEL (APL 1.1) and dom4j (BSD Style License). A NetBeans module for easy installation of the functionality - aka UpdateCenter module - is currently in the works. Source and plugin are released under APL 2.0.
This software is still work in progress, but all the main features should work on a daily usage basis. Remind that checking large libraries may take a huge amount of memory, so be careful and watch out for OOME.
To be able to run FindBugs (TM), you have to build the project beforehand, so that the necessary binaries can be found. The plugin makes use of the available sources, and the classpaths.
The Blog for the plugin is actual hosted here
Thanks to the FindBugs (TM) people for bringing such a nice tool to the OpenSource community.
Have Fun

FindBugs works with 6.1 (Happy Birthday Netbeans)
As one of the above posters mentioned, you need to go to there site (SQE) to get a supported version.
I am using Nebteans 6.1 and it works great.
Excellent set of preferences to really customize your find bugs experience.
Great plugin.
5/5.

6.5 compatible version
Actually you have to visit
SQE for a compatible version. News can be found
here. A standalone version for FindBugs only is actually not planned.

Any update for NB 6.1 or 6.5?
It's been more than a year since the comment "Stay tuned".
Is an update for the FindBugs plugin planned for the current NB versions?

NetBeans 6 compatible version
Work is actually underway to make the plugin compatible with 6.0 new Java Source Model. Further enhancements are planned (see

NetBeans 6 findbugs?
I can't seem to get this to work with NetBeans 6.
I miss having findbugs integrated into the IDE. :^(
