+OTExtractMethodRefactoring.checking_overloading = Checking overloading
+OTExtractMethodRefactoring.overloading = Extracted method will be overloaded after refactoring!
+OTExtractMethodRefactoring.ambiguous_method_specifier = Refactoring cannot be performed! There would be an ambiguous method specifier in a method binding after extracting!
+
+# RenameTypeRefactoring
+OTRenameTypeRefactoring.role_type = Role type declared inside ''{0}'' is named {1}!
+OTRenameTypeRefactoring.nested_team_type = Nested team type declared inside ''{0}'' is named {1}!
+
+# RenameMethodRefactoring
+OTRenameVirtualMethodProcessor.not_a_base_class = Refactoring cannot be performed! Selected method is not a member of a regular OO-class!
+OTRenameNonVirtualMethodProcessor.not_a_base_class = Refactoring cannot be performed! Selected method is not a member of a regular OO-class!
+OTRenameVirtualMethodProcessor.update_base_call_occurrence = Update base call occurrence
+
+RenameVirtualMethodRefactoring.special_team_method=A Team implements this interface. You cannot use a special team method name
+
+# RenameFieldRefactoring

+OTInstanceMethodMover.no_private_methods = Refactoring cannot be performed! Selected method is declared private!
+# field access/assignment checks
+OTInstanceMethodMover.method_accesses_private_field = Target method accesses a private field of the enclosing type and shall be moved to outside of this enclosing type (the new receiver is not the type of the field)!
+OTInstanceMethodMover.method_accesses_protected_field = Target method accesses a protected field of the enclosing type and shall be moved to a class in a different package (the new receiver is not the type of the field)!
+OTInstanceMethodMover.method_accesses_package_visible_field = Target method accesses a package-visible field of the enclosing type and shall be moved to a class in a different package (the new receiver is not the type of the field)!
+# overriding checks
+OTInstanceMethodMover.role_method_overrides_moved_method = Moved method would be overridden by a role method after moving!
+OTInstanceMethodMover.base_method_overrides_moved_method = Moved method would be overridden by a base method after moving!
+OTInstanceMethodMover.moved_method_is_overridden_in_regular_subclass = Moved method would be overridden in a regular subclass of the new receiver after moving!
+# ambiguity checks
+OTInstanceMethodMover.ambiguous_role_method_specifier_in_callin = There would be an ambiguous role method specifier in a callin method binding after moving!
+OTInstanceMethodMover.ambiguous_base_method_specifier_in_callin = There would be an ambiguous base method specifier in a callin method binding after moving!
+OTInstanceMethodMover.ambiguous_role_method_specifier_in_callout = There would be an ambiguous role method specifier in a callout method binding after moving!
+OTInstanceMethodMover.ambiguous_base_method_specifier_in_callout = There would be an ambiguous base method specifier in a callout method binding after moving!
+# duplicate checks
