Description tomzi 2007-06-15 10:39:15 UTC 
Imagine, I create a method:

public MyOtherClass getAnInstance()
{...}

But MyOtherClass does not exist. It would handy to have a editor suggestion like:

.) Create class MyOtherClass
.) Create interface MyOtherClass
.) Create enum MyOtherClass
Comment 1 tomzi 2007-06-15 10:43:34 UTC 
Same for declarations like:

    MyOtherClass myClass;

-> A similiar suggestion should appear
Comment 2 Jiri Prox 2007-06-15 12:16:27 UTC 
This partially works now in latest builds - hints allows to create new class (with proper constructor if necessary)
Comment 3 tomzi 2007-06-19 13:50:21 UTC 
Well true, this seems to work partially if you eg. write

   public MyOtherClass 

or 
   public MyOtherClass test

then a suggestion bulb appears. However the bulb does not appear if i continue writing:

   public  MyOtherClass test()

adding (). I ususally continues writing the empty method body and then correct the errors.
Please also add support for interfaces/enums :)
