Refactoring Request: "Pull Members Out"
How about adding a refactoring that will extract selected class members (specifically variables, but why not methods as well) into a new standalone class, and replace all accesses of those variables with new get/set methods on the new class?
For example:
class Foo
{
private int x1;
private int x2;
private String x3;
private int foo()
{
return x1 *2;
}
}
run the refactoring, which create new class, Bar:
class Foo
{
private Bar bar;
private int foo()
{
return bar.getX1() *2;
}
}
class Bar
{
private int x1;
private int x2;
private String x3;
public int getX1()
{
.....
}
.
.
.
}
Is this can already be done, somebody please point me in the right direction.

Could be called "Extract Data Object"
or you could extend the existing "Move" refactoring to allow variables to moved to a new class.
This refactoring is available as part of the Refactor-J plugin, a recommended companion product for IDEA. We call it "Extract Class", and it is only one of twenty refactorings and code assists in the product. Refactor-J is available at http://www.sixthandredriver.com, with a single user price of $49.

Looks good. But probably SixRR's introduce parameter object can already do this?
