Is this a default javac warning or just from the lint option ?
Any way, fair enough, fix looks fine, although you seem to be getting an early start on warnings day.
I think its right to handle these on the 2D list as that's the right
place to ask for a review -- and to push into the 2D forest.
I suggest that if you have a bunch of these that you
make minimise the number of patches, hence the number of commits .. and
the number of bug IDs. Semi-related or similar fixes under one ID, resort to
a new one for less related changes.

BTW the warnings day seems to have decided to focus on java.* classes
but I have no issue with others being fixed. Just declare your intent as to
where you are looking to avoid duplication.

Mario,

What is the warning that this fixes ? What is the reasoning ?
I'm supposing referencing a class constant via an instance is
somehow considered bad form but who made that call ?

This is the patch against the main jdk8 forest repository:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~neugens/warning-hackaton/webrev.02/

Btw, there is also an unused import which doesn't really issues a
warning but I thought to clean it as well.

Cheers,

Hi Phil,

On the jdk8-dev (I should probably have CC them then, but I didn't want to 
cross post,
but I indeed assumed context which was in another mailing list, sorry...) 
Xiomara
sent a mail about warnings cleanup and I just picked up some of the j2d since 
I'm more familiar
with this code.

The compiler issues warning about those classes:

[static] static variable should be qualified by type name, SunGraphics2D, 
instead of an extpression.

I have more of those, I just thought to send them in separate patches while I 
go class by class.

Cheers,
Mario
