Description ecerichter 2013-03-02 00:17:08 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201302272300)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_13
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.7-b01

NetBeans offer to use diamong where it is not feasible. For instance, in the following code, the diamon construct is a violation of Java 7 syntax:

Correct code (compile fine under JDK 7):
    b.setFichaCompensacaoMsgs(new ArrayList<BoletoMensagemFC>());

Invalid code proposed by NetBeans (causes error compiling under JDK 7):
    b.setFichaCompensacaoMsgs(new ArrayList<>());


This error would lead novices to get nuts trying to compile the code

Regards,

Edson
