Creating Import Statements

In Step 2 of the Import Management Tool wizard, import statements are created when the number of fully qualified names for an identifier exceeds the threshold set by the Maximum of Fully Qualified Names in Source property. To set these properties, choose Tools and choose Options, expand the Editing and Java Sources nodes, and select Import Management Tool Settings.

Similarly, if the number of identifiers used by an import statement is below the Maximum of Fully Qualified Names in Source threshold, the Import Management Tool removes the import statement and creates fully qualified names.

For each identifier listed, the Import Management Tool displays the following:

To override the Import Management Tool's suggested actions:

Important The identifiers that appear in this wizard panel do not include identifiers in code generated by the Form Editor, as these cannot be changed.

The identifiers listed might include some identifiers that the Import Management tool can safely ignore, such as classes from the java.lang package, which are automatically imported by default. For example, if you use the identifier String without an import statement or fully qualified name, the Import Management Tool recommends No Change, as none is needed. The String identifier is listed in the wizard, however, in case you want to use the fully qualified name.
