After renaming a method, the resulting code that is changed in other files does not get formatted. For example, if you have a rule set to line-wrap at 100 characters, then rename a method to give it a longer name, lines in other files than are currently open can get saved as more than 100 characters. Then subsequent opening and editing of that file in the Java editor can cause those lines to be formatted correctly but long after the renaming happened. This behavior causes the code changes to be out of sync with revision control comments on a file. Worse problems can come up in merging or comparing revisions.
Only the editor is capable of running save actions. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 244458 ***
