In a previous version of Eclipse (perhaps 3.2) there was a Java block comment formatting feature that took a comment of the form:

/** This is a comment of the form slash-star-star and finishing with slash-star-star
  **/

and when selected, and the format code menu was envoked, it would produce the following formatting:

 /*******************************************************************
   This is a comment of the form slash-star-star and finishing with 
   slash-star-star
   *******************************************************************/

I really liked this feature!

Is there someway to re-enable this comment formatting feature?

I don't think this was part of the official Eclipse SDK.
