When you hold CTRL+ALT+ DOWN you can duplicate the line that you have selected. Pretty useful!

@salvatore.masuzzo 2 года назад

One very useful shortcut is shift+alt+j. It creates the template for either class or method documentation. It is most useful where methods have one of more parameters, a return type an perhaps some definition of generics. I also have another observation to make... you talked about poor code formatting and also difficulty about finding the beginning and end of a block of code. I do not know (and don't need to know) the relevant shortcut that swithes between braces, because the problem is automatically resolved by the use of the Allman Coding Style, which I always apply. I would encourage you to present your sample code with that style.

@adeshahugar1141 Год назад

thank you john

@hunterftw8563 2 года назад

Similar to moving lines up/ down using the Alt + Up/Down shortcut, We can replicate a piece of code by selecting the code and then press Ctrl + Alt + Down. This will create a copy of the selected code just below.

@jvsnyc 2 года назад

I will watch this video probably the most times of any of them. I know about 1/3 of them but the others are very useful...the CTRL-SHIFT-L is great but watching you do them while hearing you talk about them helps get them into the part of the brain they need to be in, automatic actions like scratching an itch...

@CodingWithJohn 2 года назад

Glad it was helpful! There are a bunch I didn't know about myself until I started doing the research for this video that I now use regularly.

@jvsnyc 2 года назад

@@CodingWithJohn Venkat Subramanian likes to joke that advanced Java programmers are obsessed with figuring out how to get their ides to write as much of their code for them as possible. This shows many, perhaps most of them, in one video. Some say not having the code there at all is better than not having to type it. Yeah, until you are debugging code you can't see, I think.

@CodingWithJohn 2 года назад

True. I do LOVE Lombok though and we use it throughout our applications. Add once you're familiar with each particular tool like that there's less and less need to debug through the code they generate.

@gregoiremartinetti2745 2 года назад

ALT SHIFT L -> extract to variable, most usefull with alt shift r :)

@levon9 3 месяца назад

Been subscribed for a while - great videos. I get your feeling, but speaking as a CS prof who has been teaching Java to undergrads for a long time, I also don't show these shortcuts to my students until they have mastered writing their own getters/setters and constructors, etc. Only after that they have mastered these concepts and skills, will I show them the shortcuts to avoid the more tedious aspects of it. Though I encourage them to explore "Eclipse Tricks and Tips" and if they discover this on their own before I show them, it's fair game. By the way, curious, Eclipse or IntelliJ? I've been using Eclipse for ages, but taking a look at IntelliJ - I should check, maybe you have a video. PS: Your Intro to Threading video is excellent and I have my students watch it.

@gracebrace019 Год назад

I am subscribed to your channel, I watch almost all your videos, appreciate your work. I must mention, It was inappropriate for you to say "Would have slapped him on his face for not showing you shortcuts." Professors want those fundamental concepts to be embedded in your head, hence stop you from using tools early on. You can relate this, by observing how introducing a calculator early in American Secondary as well as High Schools almost cripple the students and majority of them suck at Math. Compare this with students coming from of Chinese or Indian education systems, where they are forced to do mental calculations for roots, cube roots, squares, factors, trigo, geo, calculus..... you name it everything!!! Makes them way more competitive in Math or any technical knowledge.
