Tips & Tricks - 2022
summary
Eclipse IDE installer (eclipse.org/downloads) includes a JRE and ships quarterly; demo shows practical, working shortcuts and UI features rather than theory. Live examples include Find Actions opening views and running commands, multi‑caret editing and split editors, content assist with postfix templates and type‑filters, local history preserved up to 7 days, and new debug tools: Lambda entry breakpoint, trigger points, tracepoints, hit counts, launch‑configuration view, plus ANSI console styling and Java stack links. Target files can now reference other target definitions and workspace encoding defaults to UTF‑8.
