This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When you right-click on the name of a class and select Refractor->Encapsulate Fields (to create set and get methods for fields), all checkboxes are unchecked by default. (So no methods are created.) The user has to manually select the fields they required. In previous releases, this worked in the opposite way - all boxes were ticked by default. Also, it would be nice to see refractoring of javadoc comments, as described in issue 814154
If you right click on the name the getter and the setter are selected automatically. For easy selections there will be special buttons, see issue #118849. For comments there is an issue #48296. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 118849 ***
