Description karmagfa 2008-08-20 08:23:31 UTC

[ BUILD # : 200808191401 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_07 ]

Sometimes, the hint in the java editor is duplicated.

On the attached screenshot, it appeared while proposing to create a
class.

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200809040201)
Java: 1.6.0_10-rc; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b15
System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1250; cs_CZ (nb)

It is possible to make it triple (see screenshot)

Just add line:  
NonExistingClass nec = new NonExistingClass();    

Or something like that :)

Triple is not available at the moment, I've added some code which prevents this recently. The other two are not the same hints -- one of then creates just 
the class and the other one creates class with constructor. However, these two should be distinguishable.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
