Is there a way in Eclipse to create shortcuts for commonly typed phrases?

It's often a bit of a pain to type something like MY_LOGGER_SET_CATEGORY(LOGGING_CATEGORY); That would 开发者_如何学Cmake sense to assign a shortcut like CTRL + X + S which can easily be done in editors like VIM, for example.

I was wondering if there exists a plug-in or a feature to do similar in Eclipse?

go to Preferences -> Java - > Editor -> Templates then add new in name put for example "mlsc"

MY_LOGGER_SET_CATEGORY(LOGGING_CATEGORY);

then in edit windows when you type mlsc it will be put in there.
