NetBeans 6.1 Beta. It would be good if the hinter was able to provide a list of valid classes to add a generated method to. For example, in the following code class EventsView extends Composite { public EventsView() { MonthView monthly = new MonthView(); monthly.addDayListener(new DayListener() { public void dayChanged(Day day) { doStuff(day); } }); } } Currently the hinter will offer to "create method doStuff in " (yes, it really does cut off the sentence), and if chosen will create the method in the anonymous inner class. However, I am suggesting that the list of options be expanded to - create method doStuff in anonymous class - create method doStuff in EventsView - create method doStuff in Composite note that in this, the sentence does not cut off for anonymous classes.
