Java Reference
In-Depth Information
When we wish to invoke a method in our object, we simply type a period at
the end of the variable name, and all available methods are displayed as code
completion options.
Notice how the JavaDoc for the selected method is automatically displayed.
Code templates
Code templates are abbreviations for frequently used code snippets. To use a
code template, we simply type it into the editor and hit the
Tab
key to expand the
abbreviations into the full code snippet it represents.
For example, typing
sout
and pressing the
Tab
key will expand into
System.out.println("");
, with the caret placed between the two double quotes.
