Description _ gtzabari 2001-10-08 04:41:55 UTC 
dev build 200110040910
IBM JDK 1.3

The import management tool (IMT) is seriously broken. Not only does it recommend removing import statements which are necessary, but it also does not add 
required ones and sometimes it even corrupts the text inside the source-code after adding/removing import statements and/or converting references to FQNs.

I'm going to attach some source-code I noticed problems with. You will notice that the IMT does not address the missing import statement for JFrame, and if one is 
added manually the IMT recommends you remove it.

Comment 2 _ gtzabari 2001-10-08 04:49:16 UTC 
I'm going to include the original file before the 
IMT was ever run it. This file compiles on my side 
(but won't on yours because you'll be missing other 
class files).

One very important thing to note:

Line 85 reads:
"      public boolean isFocusTraversable()"

   If you enter IMT and click on FINISH (ie: stick 
to defaults) you will notice it replaces the text 
with:

"      public boolean javax.swing.ListModel      {"

   which clearly corrupts the source-code.

Why is this reported against core ? Moving to more appropriate place.
