Issue

for example I have this code

categoryCT.getInsertedItems();

and I want shortcut to generate code like this

List<Category> insertedItems=   categoryCT.getInsertedItems();

Solution

Eclipse can’t help you with the variable name but you can write:

insertedItems = categoryCT.getInsertedItems();

This will give you a compile error.

If you press Ctrl+1 anywhere in this line, Eclipse will offer “Create local variable ‘insertedItems'”

Fewest keystrokes to get the desired result:

• catCTCtrl+Space -> categoryCT
• .getIICtrl+Space -> categoryCT.getInsertedItems()
• ;
• Shift+Alt+Left to select the whole method invocation
• Ctrl+1 + select “Create new local variable”
