Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201601210002) Java: 1.8.0_71; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.71-b15 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_71-b15 System: Windows 10 version 10.0 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_CA (nb) User directory: C:\Users\Gili\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\dev Cache directory: C:\Users\Gili\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache\dev If I take a working {@link} and move it into package-info.java, then the editor treats referenced classes as unused. Fix imports won't add references for them, and will actually remove any imports the user enters manually.
To clarify, this bug triggers compiler errors. If you have "Format on Save" enabled, you are forced to temporarily disable the feature in order to update package-info.java.
