Organizing import statements
</h1>
<p>
In this section you will organize the import declarations in your source
code.&nbsp; Open <em>junit.samples/VectorTest.java</em> file in the Java
editor if you do not already have it open.
</p>
<ol>
<li>By default, import declarations are hidden in the Outline view.
Select <strong>View Menu &gt; Filters...</strong> and un-check <strong>Import declarations</strong>.
Click <strong>OK</strong> to make them visible in the Outline view.
</li>
<li>Delete the import declarations by selecting them in the Outline view
and selecting <strong>Delete</strong> from the context menu. Confirm the
resulting dialog with <strong>Yes</strong>. You will see numerous
compile warnings in the vertical ruler since the types used in the
method are no longer imported.
