Currently, the create class works for me - for example, to create the
FooBar class in the following snippet -
when the caret is in | :
public void testSomething() {
FooBar _fb = new FooBar(); |
}
It may be nice to have it also invokable - along with create interface -
when the caret is here :
public void testSomething() {
FooBar |
}
Tim, remember that you can press al-enter without having to wait for the
lightbulb.
