This is done when Eclipse formats your code, ie right click in the
java editor, and choose "Format", or ctrl+shift+F.

You can configure the Checkstyle plug-in to actually detect trailing
whitespace, so you can fix it yourself:

http://eclipse-cs.sourceforge.net/

There is also another plug-in that you can use to remove trailing whitespace
at your command:
