Description Joost Vangoidsenhoven CLA 2012-09-01 07:16:37 EDT 
When typing java code, the eclipse autocorrect currently suggests quick fixes. However, this is still tedious since you have to hover your mouse over the exception, or use shortcuts. 
However, when trivial fixes are available (with typo's, e.g. privtae -> private, or Strign -> String), eclipse should autocorrect without warning (or by quickly underlining the keyword for a short period). This would help the development alot!

Implementing an experimental prototype with Apache Commons' Levenshtein distance can be implemented quickly in Code Recommenders latest code base. Let me know if you like to implement a prototype.
