Description Milos Gligoric CLA 2012-11-27 21:33:30 EST
Steps to reproduce:
1. Invoke "Extract Interface" on class "ExtractInterfaceBug2", and "Use the extracted interface type where possible"
2. The resulting file does not compile ("C cannot be resolved or is not a field")

class ExtractInterfaceBug2 {
    static class C {
        static int M = 0;
    }
}

class C2 {
    void f() {
        int c = ExtractInterfaceBug2.C.M;
    }
}

Issue is reproducible using I20121210-0800. Code refactoring results in compiler error.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
