Hi,

in the frame class generated by JBuilder I see some method calls like
this.setTitle( ... );
though qualifier this wouldn't be necessary, as far as I see.

So is it true, that you never need to qualify the call of a class own or
inherited method with "this", or is there anything I oversee here?
If true, what do you think: should it be used anyway to documentate that
it's a method call for the object itself, and to have search pattern to look
for such calls?

Regards,
Hartmut
