Description peterbecker 2009-03-04 23:58:18 UTC 
The Java editor warns if there are unused fields, but there is no way to suppress such warnings selectively.

There can be scenarios where some particular elements seem unused but are used in different ways (annotations,
reflection) in which case the warning should be suppressed only locally while keeping the global checks in place. See
e.g. Eclipse's @SuppressWarnings("unused").
