Description Tobias Widmer CLA 2005-05-23 09:40:28 EDT 
N20050523-0010:

The class org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.dom.rewrite.TrackedNodePosition uses 
the method TextEdit#getCoverage to determine the range of the tracked nodes. 
TextEdit#getCoverage is spec'ed to return null if all text edits are marked as 
deleted, which is the case if the tracked nodes have been deleted during AST 
rewrite.
The implementations of getStartPosition() and getLength() should handle this 
case and explicitely return -1.
