This plugin enhances code folding in Eclipse IDE, based on and maintained from Coffee-Bytes Code Folding.
It allows defining custom foldable regions in Java, XML, and other files using //[start] … //[end] comments, making code more organized and easier to navigate.
Fork of the coffee-bytes code folding plugin. Original source: https://code.google.com/archive/p/coffee-bytes/
Now Support Eclipse 2024-06 and later, Mac OS X, Linux (with nautilus) and Windows.
- Folding support for classes, methods, field groups, imports, comments, and documentation.
- Custom Region Folding: Define your own folding markers (default [start] / [end]).
- Deep integration with Eclipse JDT folding preferences to enable/disable folding for specific elements.
- Customizable folding strategies in Preferences: Configure in Window → Preferences → Java → Editor → Folding.
- Preserves Native Folding: Extends Eclipse’s folding system without removing built-in features.
- Preferences
Click Window → Preferences → Java → Editor → Folding
