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 synchronizing methods or fields between an interface and an implementing class, Netbeans adds the members to the implementing class in alphabetic order, not the order they are defined in the interface. Also, any methods added later are added at the end of the file. As a result, the source file becomes jumbled and related methods are spread apart, often violating other code conventions (eg put private methods after public). This severely limits the usefulness of the synchronization feature. I reported this about 2 years ago, but I cannot find the original issue.
Set target milestone to TBD
This bug is no more valid. Sychronization feature was copletely removed.
