I am new Eclipse, have installed the JDT plugin and just been using the Java
Editor. However the syntax highlighting for the code is quite basic.

I appreciate I can manually add extra templates but as there is an option to
import, I wondered if anyone knew of any available to download?

Cheers

Phil

Don't know any.

Note that templates have nothing to do with syntax highlighting. To get
advanced (semantic) highlighting, use the Java>Editor>Syntax
preference page.

Thanks for the reply. I am slowly finding my way around Eclipse and keep
finding new settings. It is very configurable, the problem is finding the
bit I should edit and then remembering where it was next time. :))
