Hi all,
I'm a C++ developer new to Eclipse (Ganymede), using it with the MinGW/GCC
toolchain. I'm pretty happy with it so far, but have run into an annoying
problem which I haven't been able to address (not through lack of trying).
If I have started a Javadoc style comment, Eclipse helps by automatically
adding a '*' on the next line, i.e.
/**
* <-- Pressing enter on the previous line adds this line.
*/ <-- And this line if it is not already present.
This would be great if I were actually using Javadoc, though of course
being a C++ developer I am not. I am in fact using Doxygen style comments
(which are similar) but my specific style looks like the following:
/**
//
//
*/
I would /really/ like to know how to at least turn this feature off (or
even better change it so that it fits with my style!) as it is causing me
to waste a lot of time deleting the superfluous '*' characters.
I have searched the Content Assist sections of Windows|Preferences and
hunted through all the other settings for something relating to this and
have come up with nothing. I would greatly appreciate any help you could
give me!
Cheers,
Will.

Ouch. Oh well, I guess I can either learn to live with it or become a
contributor. Thanks Anton! I appreciate the help.
Cheers,
Will.
