Summary: Abstract Method Quickfix

Initial Comment:
The java editor provides many quickfix options
including the ability to create missing methods.
Currently (Eclipse 3.1) it is not possible to create
new abstract methods. Since the quick assist in the
java editor is extendable it should be possible for
Spindle to include this feature.

example

public abstract class TestPage extends BasePage{

	public void formSubmitted(IRequestCycle cycle)	{
		setCycle(cycle);
	}
}

will result in an undefined method error on 'setCycle'.
The java editor as shipped will give the quick fix
option "create method 'setCycle(IRequestCycle'".  Which
creates:

private void setCycle(IRequestCycle cycle) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		
	}

not very useful in Tapestry app where setCycle should
be an abstract method.

Need a new option quickfix option:  create an abstract
method 'setCycle(IRequestCycle()'

which produces:

public abstract void setCycle(IRequestCycle cycle);

There is an rfe open at eclipse to improve the java editor

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=108338

But even if it's done it won't appear until Eclipse 3.2
comes out.
