Description Umeshs Sharma CLA 2004-04-29 03:02:26 EDT 
Gives error for unused parameter of a protected method in base class, if Set 
the "Parameter Never Read" as error in Windows->preferences. But the parameter 
is used in derived classes. 
So it should not give error for unused parameters for protected method.

This is a known limitation of this diagnosis. If it had to check for possible 
subclasses, it would get way to slow (you need to search for subclasses...).

In the future, we want to use the annotation support from 1.5, to allow people 
to tag such "unused" parameters so as not to get the warning.
