Description Markus Keller CLA 2011-01-24 16:17:39 EST
Improve grouping of options on Errors/Warnings page.

"Potential programming problems" is too big and without logical order. It could be split into options that affect
- members (method signatures, serial id)
- expressions
- statements and blocks

Or we could just order them by scope.
Comment 1 Markus Keller CLA 2012-04-16 12:24:49 EDT
I didn't find clear cut group boundaries, so I don't think it's worth adding new topics.

Ordered the Code style and Potential programming problems groups in rough inside-out order (from expression via statements to members).

Fixed with http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui.git/commit/?id=72c6caf81e1db41db1c0e9982ea172b1caef14a6
