Description terje7601 2014-09-01 07:14:30 UTC 
Completely analog to issue 114326, I would also like this enhancement for constructor generation. My use case: JPA requires no-args constructors, but I typically don't want to expose them, so I make them protected by default.

Ideally, there would be 2 options as well: a default visibility for the no-args constructor, and one for constructors with one or more arguments. In my case, I would set no-args visibility to protected, and the other to public then.
