Description Deepak Azad CLA 2010-05-24 05:09:18 EDT
Build I20100520-1744

- New workspace
- Open a Java file placed anywhere on the file system (but is not on build
path)
Use following snippet

package q;
public class B {
    int a;
    void foo() {
        System.out.println();
        System.out.println();
    }
}
- Select field 'a' OR method 'foo'
- From the Menu bar 'Refactor' -> Rename => Dialog saying 'Operation unavailabe on the current selection. Select a field Java project, field, method.... etc' comes up. 

However dialog saying 'the CU is not on the build path' should come up.
