Is there an option inside Eclipse where i can click on a symbol besides
code loops(while, if-else, etc etc) and close the loop?I have some loops
with long code inside and it's kind of troublesome to scroll past them
instead of closing them and then doing the scrolling which would be much
faster.

you are looking for the code folding feature. This is already present
within eclipse out-of-the-box.

True - but it doesn't allow folding of control structures, only of
members and comments. Folding loops is not currently possible in eclipse.

sorry - there's a plugin called Coffee bytes code folding plugin.

This plugin had the feature that you want ie folding loops - but
unfortunately (due to breaking API changes) - this doesnt seem to work
with 3.2 M6.
