Hi everyone:

When editing(typing, pasting, refactoring) Java code, Eclipse can automatically update import, it's very convenient, but the code style is not what I wanted, I'd like all import statement seems like this:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;


not the heavy
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputSteam;
import java.io.OutputSteam;
//...

import java.util.List;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;
// ....

I know import package.* CAN cause class name collision (java.util.Date vs java.sql.Date), but it's not a big deal, and it can be easily handled.

Is there a way to configure this?

Go to Preferences->Java Code Style->Organize Imports and for "Number of imports needed for .*", use 1.

Thank you Satyam!

I've noticed this config before, but I misunderstood it, I thought it's "max lines of import statements". oh my poor English... Dead
