Hi
Does anyone know of a way to format the java source code as below in
eclipse?
Many thanks,
Paul

I want to format as below where method is a single line for 1 or 2 lines
statements:

public class ABC {
public String getName() { return "jason"; }
}

but it keeps formatting as below which I don't like:

public class ABC {
public String getName() {
return "jason";
}
}

Try to play with Window | Preferences | Java | Code Style | Formatter,
creating your own profile.

I have tried many times (and hours) with Window | Preferences | Java |
Code Style | Formatter to create my own profile, but still unable to
prevent the line wrap on the methods.
Can someone help with the below problem?
Thanks
