User should be at least warned about the possible compiler error during refactoring. 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. As such, we're closing this bug. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. 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. -- The automated Eclipse Genie. |
The following code is self-explanatory. --------------------------------- //Original code package p; public class A { protected int i = 0; public void m(q.B b) { i++; } } package q; public class B extends p.A { } --------------------------------- //After moving p.A.m(q.B) to q.B package p; public class A { protected int i = 0; } package q; import p.A; public class B extends p.A { public void m(A a) { a.i++; //ERROR } } Inherited field p.A.i is still "protected" so it is not visible.
