Description Jesse Glick 2011-12-29 23:08:58 UTC 
...resulting in e.g.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Outer$MyAction.<init>()
	at java.lang.Class.getConstructor0(Class.java:2706)
	at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructor(Class.java:1985)
[catch] at org.netbeans.core.startup.layers.BinaryFS$AttrImpl.getValue(BinaryFS.java:665)

at runtime. This kind of thing ought to be caught at compile time.

Compare bb589418e46f. A general clause in LayerBuilder.instantiableClassOrMethod would catch many usages, but not all.
