Description Daniel Serodio CLA 2003-04-08 13:32:59 EDT 
We use the following convention for setter methods:

void setFoo(int foo)
{
    this.foo = foo;
}

Eclipse complains that this assignment has no effect.
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-04-09 04:38:25 EDT 
Cannot reproduce with trivial test case:

public class X {
	int foo;
	void setFoo(int foo) {
		this.foo = foo;
	}
}

No error is reported.

Is it ok to close, or do you have more steps to reproduce ?
Comment 3 Daniel Serodio CLA 2003-04-09 09:06:46 EDT 
Strange... I've seen it before, but I can't reproduce it now. Ok to close then,
sorry.
Comment 4 Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-04-09 10:43:53 EDT
