Description Svata Dedic 2016-03-01 12:18:48 UTC
There seem to be change in (nb)javac, which affects our error detection / fixes in java.hints. The change may be deliberate and desirable - in that case, I'll change the hints impl as appropriate. 

See testcases in java.hints module:

1/ ImportClassTest.testImportHint6
    public ImportTest6() {
        Collections.
    }
Collections is not imported. Formerly, the error message was "not a statement" ("compiler.err.not.stmt"). Now the reported error message is: "identifier expected" ("compiler.err.expected").


Thanks :)
