Silly question perhaps but I cant seem to find me a setting in Eclipse
what will set the semicolon (;) automagially after calling a method. If
anyone know how to make it do so then please let me know.

TIA

semicolon positioning. With this on, typing a semicolon will
automatically place it at the very end of the line (unless you are
inside a string literal). Automatic insertion after a single method
invocation does not generally make sense, since you can chain method
invocations together (Object.toString().length(), for example).
