I will try my hand on this one. Functionally it seems simple enough, based on what I learned from issue #7043 and issue #7044. ## on the choices to make. The first version will be very basic. Froe **class to record** will only accept a class with final fields. It will leave any method intact because code based reasoning on the implementations of `toString()`, `hashCode()`, and `equals(Object other) ` is too much effort for this little feature. Testing whether a given implementation of said methods deviates from the automatic in record is brittle at best, so best avoid it. If the user wants the records default, he can simply delete his own after the transformation. The implementation will simply rewrite the AST to be a record and then save that. Something similar will apply for **record to class** any given methods will be taken over to the record. Any missing methods (`hashCode()`, `equals(Object other)`, `toString()`) can easily be generated with the already available code generators in Netbeans, so I will not duplicate that here. The hard/new part for me will be the proper integration into the menus. I will create a branch issue7762 on my fork and create a PR when I am ready for preview. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
