Description elharo 2007-05-08 21:18:09 UTC 
1. Create a new Swing application framework project using the wizard. This
creates a file with a name like desktopapplication1.DesktopApplication.

2. perform a rename refactoring on the *package* to change it to com.example.foo

3. Notice the code is broken.

The specific problem seems to be that a class literal of the form
desktopapplication1.DesktopApplication.class appears in the unmodifiable section
of code generated from the user interface form and the refactoring does not
change this.

The problem does not occur with non-UI code. I.e. usually the package rename
refactoring does update class literals.

Yes, this is known problem. The refactoring should be integrated with UI code.
Thanks for your report anyway.
