I am trying to align fields into columns in eclipse php , but i can't find this in code setting preferences.

I wanted to align following code:

$a = b;
$name = cccc;

i wanted the code should be aligned like below:

$a = b;
$name = cccc;

Is there any way to do this in eclipse php mars 2 ?

Sorry for digging this old post but I want to do exact the same in eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2) and PDT 5.2.0.

$a                   = 1;
$name                = 'max';

The "align fields into column" option is available in the java formatter settings but I can't find it for PHP.

The code example above may vary, depends witch font is used. So I attached a screenshot of the java formatter settings to make it clear, what I am looking for.

Thank you for the reply. I agree with Robert. When enabling the formatting option "align fields in columns" all member fields get aligned, like this
int member1 = 1;
int member2WithLongName = 2;
int member3 = 3;
String member4 = "asdf";
