Description Patrice Kerremans CLA 2002-12-22 17:56:52 EST 
clicking the icon of a method, class, interface, innerclass, etc in 
the "package explorer" view, should present the user a small popup menu, where 
they can select 'private, public, protected,...'  once the user selects one of 
the options the selected visibility should be set in the source code.
Comment 1 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2002-12-31 10:09:48 EST 
For methods there is the change signature refactoring which does the job. In 
addition to updating the visibility of the method it also updates it for all 
overridden methods.

Given the current schedule this will not happen for 2.1 unless we get external 
support.
Comment 2 Denis Roy CLA 2009-08-30 02:17:14 EDT 
As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
