eclipse设置以自动重命名类文件

Question

I am looking for a setting in eclipse, where, if I right click and rename the file, then the content of the file as well gets changed to mirror the new name.

Say I had a class called

public ClasA{

}

I right click the file called ClasA.java and rename it to ClassA.java. I would like my class in the source file to be renamed as follows

public ClassA{

}

The same with packages as well. If I change the location of a source file to a different package, I would like the package sourcecode.location; as well to change accordingly.

For some reason, I'm having to rename this in the current eclipse. Can someone tell me where the setting is.

Answer 1

Press shift + alt + R to Refactor. Please check Eclipse documentation for more options.

Answer 2

The shortcut for renaming is alt + shift + R . You can rename any class, method, or variable and Eclipse will update all places where it is used.

To get used to it at first you can Right Click -> Refactor ( alt + shift + t ). It will show you the options like renaming, moving package, etc. Any action done through that many will update all corresponding references in your project.
