Right we have started to be consistent using "Constructor for subclasses to call":

Also I prefer constructs over creates, even for the concrete classes, eg this :
+
+    /**
+     * Creates an {@code ImageFilter}.
+     */
+    public ImageFilter() {}
+

should be "Constructs an {@code ImageFilter}"

Hi, Conor.

Please use such spec for the protected constructor: "Constructor for subclasses to call": https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psadhukhan/8250850/webrev.1/src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/plaf/metal/MetalTheme.java.sdiff.html

Actually the current text is also fine to me, but looks like many people use the text above as a description.

Hello all,

Could someone please review my changes for JDK-8250855, 'Address reliance on default constructors in the Java 2D APIs'? This issue relates to JDK-8250639 '☂ Address reliance on default constructors in the java.desktop module'. The changes address the reliance on default constructors by adding in basic constructors in the following classes:

  * java.awt.Image
  * java.awt.PrintJob
  * java.awt.font.GlyphVector
  * java.awt.font.LayoutPath
  * java.awt.font.LineMetrics
  * java.awt.image.AbstractMultiResolutionImage
  * java.awt.image.BufferStrategy
  * java.awt.image.ImageFilter
  * java.awt.image.RGBImageFilter
  * java.awt.image.VolatileImage
  * javax.print.PrintServiceLookup
  * javax.print.ServiceUI
  * javax.print.ServiceUIFactory
  * javax.print.StreamPrintServiceFactory
  * javax.print.event.PrintJobAdapter

A key issue is the accompanying description for each of the added constructors and is probably the feedback I would value most as it has been a point of discussion previously. I have included a specdiff to easily view the changes observed in the api documentation. Currently drafting a CSR for these changes.
