Subject: Java Project example misleading

The "new Java project example wizard" subclasses BasicNewResourceWizard.
From the Java docs for the class, it says "This class is not intended to be
subclassed outside this package." !
So, there is an inconsistency here.
Yes, I know it is an example, but sometimes we follow examples blindly  ;-)
just honoring rules of engagement for the platform.

There is a method that the sample relies on, which is
 selectAndReveal( IResource);
and it gets it from the parent.
Maybe this method should be public, just like

BasicNewProjectResourceWizard.updatePerspective(fConfigElement);


Just FYI
