<h1>
Refactoring
</h1>
<p>
The goal of refactoring support is to allow for improving your code without changing its behaviors. When you refactor your code, your goal is to make a system-wide coding
change without affecting the semantic behavior of the system. The JDT automatically manages refactorings for you.
</p>
<p>
The workbench optionally allows you to preview all the impending results of a refactoring action before you finally choose to carry it out.
</p>
<p>
Refactoring commands are available from the context menus in many views and editors and the <a href="ref-menu-refactor.htm">Refactor menu</a> in the menu bar.
