[ajug-members] Eclipse 'snippets' plugin = ?

[Howard Kapustein]

No. 'Snippets' as in, a predefined block of code in a list of such
things, you can drag onto the an edit window and it'll, ultimately,
paste in text.

 

Download Exadel's freebie (non-Pro) and take a peek. MyEclipse has a
similar thing.

The variable-substitution part is the plus. Straight text drag'n'drop
isn't as interesting.

Do you mean code templates?  An example being "instanceof" in eclipse,
where it expands a template that you can tab through and fill out the
proper values.

MyEclipse has one. Exadel has one. But if I'm not using either
framework, I can't seem to find one that works.

MyEclipse + Exadel both have the notion of 'variables', i.e. when a
snippet is dropped into the editor, a dialog with prompts for
substitution values can be displayed for user input, before text
insertion.

Does anyone know of a snippet plugin for Eclipse (3.1) that doesn't
require MyEclipse or Exadel?
