Modify Eclipse equals() method template

Question

The eclipse generated equals() method does not have { } for if structure. e.g

public boolean equals(Object obj) {
    if (this == obj)
        return true;
    .........
    return true;
}

How can it be changed to generate code in following patter

public boolean equals(Object obj) {
    if (this == obj){
        return true;
    }
    .........
    return true;
}

Answer 1

You can use the check Use blocks in if statements of the Generate hashcode and equals option to generate the brackets, like this:

And the code generated will look like:

Another option is use the Save actions feature, and add a format sourcecode action.
