Description sujata.galinde CLA 2011-03-14 07:14:30 EDT 
Class data member Refactor --> Rename
	When I Refactor --> Rename data member of a class. It is getting renamed at all places it is referred. My concern is - getter & setter methods associated with data memebr are not renamed along with data member rename. In general, developer Refactor -> Rename data member & continues w/o knowing that getter & setter need to be regenerated again (with new name). 
	This behaviour is risky in cases, wherein I want to have some logic in getter & setter methods. e.g. whenever marks changes, update percentage and grade like that.
	getter setter methods associated with data member should be renamed along with data member rename.
	
Thanks,
Sujata P Galinde

Use the Rename dialog to select the pertaining checkbox:
- press Alt+Shift+R again, or
- use the menu in the yellow popup, or
- disable Preferences > Java > Rename in editor without dialog
