Bug 172345

Summary: Rename refactoring leads to compilation error when applied on a method in a complex class hierarchy
Product: java Reporter: vilasshekharbj <vilasshekharbj>

Description vilasshekharbj 2009-09-16 03:04:47 UTC
Apply the rename refactoring on B.m() in the following code and rename it to 'p':

interface B {
  public void m();
}
interface A {
  public void m();
}
class C implements A, B {
  public void m(){}
}

The refactoring fails to detect that it should also rename A.m() and leads to the following code that does not compile:

interface B {
  public void p();
}
interface A {
  public void m();
}
class C implements A, B {
  public void p(){}
}

This is already filed, but IMHO it is not so frequent test case
