自定义Eclipse格式化程序以删除不必要的花括号

Question

I would like to configure a formatter in Eclipse that removes curly braces when they surround a return/break/continue control statement:

if (x == y) {
    return true;
} //that's bad

if (x == y) return true; //that's better

I've found under Preferences --> Java --> Code Style --> Formatter --> Control Statements how to keep if and else statements on one line, but not how to get rid of the unnecessary braces. Does Eclipse let you define a formatter which eliminates redundant braces?

Answer 1

Preferences > Java > Code Style > Clean Up , press Edit..., Code Style tab, set Use blocks in if/while/for/do statements to Only if necessary . After that you can simply do the hell on particular file or even whole project with Source > Clean Up... option :)

PS Nevertheless, my choice is "Always".

Answer 3

Formatters aren't supposed to change the non-whitespace characters. What you're referring to would be a part of the Clean Up functionality, but I don't see exactly what you've mentioned as one of the things it can do.
