Description _ dags 2005-06-04 01:16:38 UTC 
Adding an component to a form, say a JTable, generate the corresponding
"generated code" with jTable1 as component name. 

Then, some code is added by hand referencing that component, for instance :

jTable1.setAutoresizeMode(0);

If the component is clicked, in Visual Editor, and renamed it is renamed only in
the "guarded code" portion of source code and remains with the old name in the
rest, signaling an "cannot find symbol" error.

As an enhancement, rename action should find and rename, maybe with some
confirmation dialog, in all source code, not only in "guarded code" portion.

Similarly, refactoring should let the user choose if want or not to make
modification on "guarde code". If yes, should modify accordingly the underlying
.form file.
