Is there a way to force Eclipse to allow me to engage Source -> Format
regardless of the file I'm working in to have compiled cleanly?
I'm unable to reformat the code (except by hand) before getting it all
compiled cleanly. I don't see why this must be the case, but someone put
this semantic into Eclipse and maybe there's a way to turn it off?

In my case, it's code I wanted quick, but "unproject"-like access to. It
was syntactically and semantically complete, but not without the
addition of numerous JARs. I shamelessly wanted to use the formatter in
Eclipse, something I don't have access to from Vim. Should probably look
around for one.
Thanks.
