Re: [jdt-core-dev] About JavaRefactoringContribution and RenameJavaElementDescriptor test results

Those are not illegal cases. Not sure how you generated the report, but it looks like you did not honor the API problem filters. You should look at the official reports that are produced with our builds, e.g. [1].

Hi there,

My name is João Brunet and I'm a PhD student at UFCG - Brazil, currently visiting professor Gail Murphy at University of British Columbia. In my PhD, I'm analyzing the API Tools Verification Reports of Eclipse project over time. I'm collecting some interesting observations from this data. 

For example, I found that:

org.eclipse.jdt.core.refactoring.descriptors.JavaRefactoringContribution is illegally extended by 39 classes
org.eclipse.jdt.core.refactoring.descriptors.RenameJavaElementDescriptor is illegally instantiated by 20 classes


I need some of specialists' opinion about these tests results. Would you please answer the following questions?


Why are there so many illegal access to these two particular classes?

What is the role of each of these two classes in the architecture of Eclipse? 

Can you assign importance for each one? (critical, high, medium or low)


Please, let me here from you all. I would be very grateful if you agree to answer these and some other questions. Your opinion will improve a lot my results. The more answers and discussion, the better are the results.

Thank you very much in advance.
Regards,
João.
