Description Max Gilead CLA 2006-04-04 07:52:46 EDT 
It's impossible to move static member from one inner class to another -- on below example CONSTANT can't be moved from class A to B using Refactor->Move tool:


public class Foo {
  public static class A {
    public static final String CONSTANT = "";
  }
  public static class B {}
}

This works fine if you enter the fully-qualified name for B (e.g. using Content Assist). Only thing to do is to support the unqualified type name.

The fix is to use declaring.resolveType() in MoveMembersWizard.MoveMembersInputPage#addDestinationControls(Composite) and in MoveStaticMembersProcessor#resolveType(String).
