Move should provide a way to change (enhance) visibility of the moved method.

Especially, if while performing the refactoring you already get a warning (if it
applies) that "In 'Foo', moved method 'bar' will not be visible from 'Baz'"
Comment 1 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2004-05-29 12:47:09 EDT
Not for 3.0
Comment 2 Martin Aeschlimann CLA 2006-06-13 02:28:53 EDT
Tobias, wht's the story here. Do we automatically update the visibility?
Comment 3 Tobias Widmer CLA 2006-06-13 03:28:45 EDT
It depends on the refactoring used. Move Method updates visibility, but reorg and dnd does not. Nico, could you please give a specific code snippet that exhibits the defect?
