Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200803311426) Java: 1.6.0_10-beta; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b11 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1250; cs_CZ (nb) I have created a sample anagram game. Then I moved (ctrl+c/ctrl+v) files "About.java" and "Anagrams.java" from package "com.toy.anagrams.ui" to package "com.toy.anagrams.lib". I tried to safely remove/refactor the "com.toy.anagrams.ui" package, but the project does not build then - it says: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\NetBeansProjects\AnagramGame1\src\com\toy\anagrams\lib\Anagrams.java:34: package com.toy.anagrams.ui does not exist import com.toy.anagrams.ui.*; 1 error BUILD FAILED (total time: 2 seconds)
Created attachment 59566 [details] ZIP with a sample project - try to safely remove the "ui" package
Reproducible, it happens for unused star imports
Unfortunately it is not possible to find package.* references with present API. I have filed issue #131944 for this.
Resolving as LATER since the requested API support still does not exist.
NetBeans.org Migration: changing resolution from LATER to WONTFIX
Verified - fixed. :)
