Eclipse ADT quick fix redefines CONSTRUCTOR

[matt]

I've got a class that's in a subclass of a subclass. The constructor the upper most super class has no parameters, but can raise an exception.

In the implementation section of my class, I type.

METHOD constructor.
ENDMETHOD.

I then put the cursor on the word constructor, press ctrl-1, and choose create definition of constructor.

In the public section of the class I get:

METHODS constructor REDEFINITION.

Backend: 750/0013, Eclipse: Version: 2020-03 (4.15.0), ADT Core Development Tools 3.8.5

Can anyone replicate this? Paging: armin.beil.2

I can confirm this behavior having exactly the same configuration.

I have no expertise regarding quick assists and I cannot help here, but the relevant colleagues are aware of this thread.

And correct would be

METHODS constructor.

as constructors cannot be redefined , right?

It looks like this has already been fixed in higher releases. I will double check with a colleague an tell you the fix release.

I guess this part of the backend then? Will a note for lower releases be issued? Although it really is very minor!
