Description Steven Ostrowski 2002-08-08 16:24:10 UTC
When choosing the target method in the connection wizard 
and selecting the source of a parameter, there should also 
be a window to select variables from local scopes.

For example, if method beanPropertyChanged
(PropertyChangeEvent evt) is the source method that then 
has the target method doSomething(PropertyChangeEvent), 
the Connection Wizard should show you that evt is in the 
local scope and could be selected as the parameter.

Currently, I've only been able to do it by typing in the 
code myself which requires knowing the parameter names and 
defeats the purpose of a visual editor.

Makes sense, but I don't think this is the main area of a visual editor.

 This issue is very old and seems nobody else complains there. According to comments of tpavek, I close this enh.
