Description belur_1d 2007-03-24 07:02:13 UTC
Hi


How do i do this?

1> Choose a method
2> Say move to different Class 
3>Apply and Nbs then updates the references to that method

I want this feature badly and cud not figure out how to do it.

I agree that this is an important feature and much more common event than some of the more obscure refactoring choices
already in NetBeans, such as abstracting to a superclass.  A typical example involves moving a method from a worker
object to a service after it becomes known that multiple types of workers will require the same type of processing. 
Here, the method is being generalized in usage, but not with respect to inheritance, so refactoring tools like pull up,
push down, extract and so on are not useful.
