Description Thomas Hallgren

The sorting of members forces a split of methods into a static and a non-static
group. The very common case of grouping all public methods together regardless
of if they are static or not, is not possible. A more flexible scheme is needed
where member visibility can be given a higher sort order than static.

JDT Text uses JDT UI's Appearance > Members Sort Order preference.

That is what I mean. There's no way to give visibility higher priority then
category. I'd like to say "Sort members with the same visibility by category"
rather than the other way around. I don't want a static private method above a
public non-static one.

No plans on extending the sort members functionalty. We would prefer to keep it simple and are interested in contributions.

As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
