Bug 81980 Unexpected unresolved enum quick fix suggestions [quick fix] [5.0]
Although the create field and create constant in my enum type suggestions for the quick fix in the code listed below compiles and works fine. It is not quite what I expected for the use of enumerated types. public class EnumQuickFixBug implements Runnable { private State state; private enum State {begin, end}; public void run() { state = State.begin; // Try quick fixing the line below state = State.middle; state = State.end; } public static void main(String args[]) { EnumQuickFixBug bugs = new EnumQuickFixBug(); bugs.run(); System.out.println("Done"); } } I expected to declaration of the enum type to change to something like: private enum State {begin, end, middle}; but instead it did something like this: private enum State {begin, end; public static State middle;};

if (refNode.isSimpleName() && ((kind & SimilarElementsRequestor.VARIABLES)  != 0)) {
			CompilationUnit root= (CompilationUnit) refNode.getRoot();
			String name= ((SimpleName) refNode).getIdentifier();
			BodyDeclaration declaration= ASTResolving.findParentBodyDeclaration(refNode);
			int baseRel= relevance;
			if (isLikelyTypeParameterName(name)) {
				baseRel += 4;
			}
			while (declaration != null) {
				IBinding binding= null;
				int rel= baseRel;
				if (declaration instanceof MethodDeclaration) {
					binding= ((MethodDeclaration) declaration).resolveBinding();
				} else if (declaration instanceof TypeDeclaration) {
					binding= ((TypeDeclaration) declaration).resolveBinding();
					rel++;
				}
				if (binding != null) {
					AddTypeParameterProposal proposal= new AddTypeParameterProposal(cu, binding, root, name, null, rel);
					proposals.add(proposal);
				}
				declaration= ASTResolving.findParentBodyDeclaration(declaration.getParent());
			}
		}
