Description rajivderas 2008-07-21 05:46:51 UTC
[ BUILD # : 200807170007 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_07 ]

When I try to create a reference of a new Object which is not already
created the Hints pop should display and ask "Create class <clssname>
in  <package>". It shows the hint but is is shown twice in the
editor. 

Ex: 
package netcattest;

/**
 *
 * @author Rajiv Perera
 */
public class Main {

    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
       NetCat cat = new NetCat(); // This object does not exist and
in     //this line the hint duplicates the same information twice
    }

}

Hi rajivderas!

I don't think this is really a defect. I would say it should be an enhancement - the feature currently works (all hints
are given to you) but it can be enhanced so that the hints are unique. I will make a P3 enhancement of this, if you
insist that the current behavior is a defect, please feel free to change it back (but in my opinion this should be
classified rather as an enhancement for above mentioned reason).

With regards,

Petr Dvorak
