A dollar-sign ($) inside the name of a Java class in a different package is not recognized by an import hint. How to reproduce this issue: Create a Java Application Project. Create a new package "x". Create a class named "$Test". Create a new package "x.y". Create a new class "Test" which extends $Test. package x.y; public class Test extends $Test { A red curly line appears under $Test, with tooltip "Cannot find symbol symbol: class $Test". Then click on the lightbulb in the margin. Only the option "Create class "$Test" in package x.y" is present. Problem: There is not an option "Add import for x.$Test". Work around: manually add "import x.$Test;" to the Java source.
