Description Jiri Kovalsky 2010-11-11 13:47:31 UTC 
Created attachment 102909 [details]
Screenshot of code completion suggesting "this.new" in "New Watch" dialog.

Product Version: NetBeans IDE 7.0 Beta (Build 201011110000)
Java: 1.6.0_22; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 17.1-b03
System: Linux version 2.6.31-22-generic running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb)
Userdir: /home/cesilko/.netbeans/7.0beta

Description:
============
For some reason "new" Java keyword is incorrectly suggested in code completion when creating new watch. See attached screenshot.

Steps to reproduce:
===================
1. Create new Anagram Game sample project.
2. Invoke "New > Debug" item from main menu.
3. Type "this." into the "New Watch" dialog and wait till code completion shows up.
4. Scroll down until "new" suggestion appears.
Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2010-11-11 14:04:10 UTC 
This behavior is O.K.
Go to Anagrams() constructor, enter a new line, write "this." and see the code-completion. The last item is "new".
It's legal to write "this.new <name of an inner class>()"
Comment 2 Jiri Kovalsky 2011-01-09 22:04:04 UTC 
I see. Verified.
