Due to company style guide changes I need to adapt the Java code that gets generated when e.g. selecting Source => Generate hashCode() and equals()

Where are the templates based on which Eclipse generates such source code?
Is there some intro or documentation for these? I googled extensively but there aren't very many hits any more on Eclipse-related subjects.

I hope you don't tell me that this is hardcoded...

Have a look at http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui.git/tree/org.eclipse.jdt.ui/core%20extension/org/eclipse/jdt/internal/corext/codemanipulation/GenerateHashCodeEqualsOperation.java

If you see the kind of logic in that class it should become clear that this needs to be programmed, not "templated".
Feel free to roll your own generator based on this class, though.

Ouch! That's what I had feared! I'll have to have a closer look to see whether I really want to delve into that business...
Many thanks for the pointer, anyway!
