Description esmithbss 2010-11-23 18:46:19 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201011230001)
Operating System = Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_20
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 16.3-b01

When editing a Java source file and the parenthesis for a statement are not balanced, it is common for a person to add a single parenthesis; however, when an opening parenthesis is added, either as a new character or as a selected block replacement, both the opening and closing parentheses are added which requires the closing parenthesis to be deleted.

When adding parenthesis to a statement, if the parenthesis are unbalanced and the parenthesis being added (open or closed) will bring the parentheses closer to being in-balance, then the counter parenthesis (open or closed) should not be added.

Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the problem in the current dev build. Could
you please provide some additional information (particular test case, any
non-default formatting options, etc.) that could help me to reproduce the
issue? Thanks.
