[Pilsen-010131CE] jdk1.3.1beta b14 sun rh 7.0 ===================== Access <default> in 3.screen of NFT wizard is hidding/became blank Steps to reproduce: ------------------- 1. NewFromTemplate 2. Class & name it 3. Modifiers -> Access: set <default> 4. press NEXT & BACK button 5. Access (combobox) is blank... <default> value is lost --- note -> BUG also appears in version : FFJ20
The access modifier 'default' means blank, it is equal to mentioning no access modifier. However it is a good idea to remove the '<default>' from the combo box so that there will be only one access modifier 'public'. If it is not public then it will be default (no access modifier at all).
I think, the "<default>" access is OK. It's better than blank field although "default" access represent NO-word in java code. It might confuse a user is s/he return back and s/he couldn't remember what s/he've choosen.... So, the behaviour should be as follow: if I choose "<default>" access (for a Class or whatever...) GO NEXT and GO BACK there should be still "<default"> access choosen, as it is for "public" or other modifiers (checkboxs) like FINAL, etc.
Fixed for dev-131
