Description Clovis Seragiotto CLA 2017-02-09 06:14:07 EST 
For the following class

package a;

interface Foo {
    static void x() {  }
    
    class Bar implements Foo {
        static void y() { x(); }
    }
}

"organize imports" automatically adds "import static a.Foo.x;". And then the compiler complains that this import is never used.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

Vikas, this looks like a good candidate for you. Can you take a look at this?

>>Can you take a look at this?

I will have a look.
Comment 5 Clovis Seragiotto CLA 2019-04-04 03:02:25 EDT 
… and if x() is declared as private in the example, as in

interface Foo {
    private static void x() {  }
    …
}

then the compiler complains that the import cannot be resolved.
