Eclipse Goodie

Note to archeologists and readers: this was written a long time ago and is maintained simply for historical reasons.
I’m using this little Eclipse goodie every day since I discovered it earlier in the week. It’s a common occurrence that you have a java.util.Collection object reference and want to iterate over it. Check this out:
In Eclipse, after the object ref was assigned to list, I hit ctrl-space and found a wonderful addition to the menu (iterate over collection) that sets up my code with a for() loop and populates everything for me.
Try it. You’ll use it all the time.
