You want Eclipse to add a constructor to a class, including a call to the superclass’s constructor.

Select Source→ Add Constructor from Superclass.

For example, if you have this code:

public class DisplayApp {

    static String text = "No problem.";
    
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        System.out.println(text);
    }
}

and you select Source→ Add Constructor from Superclass, Eclipse will give you this:

public class DisplayApp {

    static String text = "No problem.";
    
    /**
     * 
     */
    public DisplayApp( ) {
               super( );
               // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
               }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        System.out.println(text);
    }
}

Eclipse 3.0

In Eclipse 3.0, you can create a constructor that will assign values to one or more fields. Select Source→ Generate Constructor using Fields, opening the dialog shown in Figure 3-15.

Figure 3-15. Creating a constructor that will fill fields

Selecting the two String fields, text and message, creates this constructor:

public DisplayApp(String text, String message) {
    super( );
    this.text = text;
    this.message = message;
}
