You can create various Java code templates in Eclipse via

Window > Preferences > Java > Editor > Templates

e.g.

sysout is expanded to:

System.out.println(${word_selection}${});${cursor}

You can activate this by typing sysout followed by CTRL+SPACE

What useful Java code templates do you currently use? Include the name and description of it and why it’s awesome.

I am looking for an original/novel use of a template rather than a built-in existing feature.
