Say you have the java code

int a = 1;
if (a = 5)
{
 //...some code    
}

You will get the error :
Type mismatch: cannot convert from int to boolean

If you then try a QuickFix you will get :
No suggestions available


I would suggest the addition of an "Use comparison (==) instead of assignment (=)"

While I know this is trivial for most seasoned programmers, it is not for new programmers. Furthermore, the lack of consistent help prevents the habit of looking to the quickfixs from forming in the being of the learning process.

The addition of these simple quickfixes can really help students.

thanks,
