I am pretty new to eclipse development. I got a requirement where i need to change the functionality of default equals and hashcode generator to generate compareTo instead of equals comparison for BigDecimal and BigInteger.

I would appreciate if some one could direct me in proper channel to go about the solution.

summary of question : Need to change the funtionality of automatic generation of hash code and equals in ECLIPSE IDE 3.4

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Appreciate your help.

Thank you,
Raghu

You cannot change that. The best path is to provide your own generator.
Of course you can start by copying the code of the existing generator.
