Description Deepak Azad CLA 2011-05-16 04:41:00 EDT 
After writing a new field, I generally want to create getters,setters and/or a constructor. 'Source > Getters and Setters' is available as a quick assist, but 'Source > Generate constructor using fields' is not.

When the quick assist is invoked
- if the selection is non zero and contains lets say 3 fields out of a total 4, then in the 'Generate constructor using fields' dialog only these 3 fields should be selected (user can of course change his selection in the dialog)
- if there is no selection then all fields should be selected in the dialog

I'm not sure if this is the same request or just closely related, but I'd like to be able to use quick assist to execute the "generate constructor using fields" in response to "The blank final field foo may not have been initialized" errors.
Comment 2 Markus Keller CLA 2012-02-01 10:13:01 EST 
The quick assist should only be active when a single field is selected and the field is not yet initialized in existing constructors/initializers.
