Description From Jesse Glick 2006-01-10 20:12:08

@Retention(RUNTIME)
@Target({FIELD})
public @interface X {}

Fix Imports will offer to import Retention and Target, but not (static import)
ElementType.FIELD and RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME.

Reassigning to Honza.

Sorry, but I do not think this is a defect - this is not supposed to work for
now.

Pulling in clarifying comments from dupes.

Note that this is related to issue 164487. Instead of scanning the entire
classpath, the user provides the list of classes to scan. There could be a lot
of noise without user preference.

(copied from gsporar in issue 89258)

If I type this in:

    int val = abs(55);

I get an error and an editor hint that offers to create a method called abs().

I would like to also get an editor hint that offers to do a static import of
java.lang.Math.abs (and perhaps another hint for a static import of
java.lang.Math.*).
