Steps to reproduce 1. Create a simple annotation with one or more attributes but no default value public @interface MyAnnotation { String author(); } 2. Annotate a class using this @MyAnnotation("ankur") public class AnnotationTest { } 3. The @MyAnnotation("ankur") will be correctly marked for error. 4. Choose the quick fix "Add missing attributes" 5. The result of running the quick fix is @MyAnnotation(author = "") This loses the information and I will have to undo the the quick fix to copy the attribute value to clipboard before fixing it. Ideal fix would be @MyAnnotation(author = "ankur") In presence of multiple attributes, the existing value could be assigned to first (type) matching attribute.
Fix to go into MissingAnnotationAttributesProposal.addMissingAtributes(ITypeBinding, ListRewrite).
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. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
