Description Brian Matzon 2002-03-12 10:37:18 UTC 
Ok, so naming could be better :)
I often develop using * import statments, but before I commit it to CVS I need
to change all import statements to single import staments eg:

java.awt.*;

becomes

java.awt.Point;
java.awt.Rectangle;

doing this manually is annoying.
Adding a button to the import management tool, that marks all classes from 'use
FQN' to 'create impoert statement' would make my life (and others) *much*
easier... :)

Workaround:
Set the following value unreasonably high:
Options
->Editing
  ->Java Sources
    ->Import Management Tool Settings
      [Wildcard Import Statement Threshold]
