Eclipse Optimize Imports to Include Static Imports

Is there anyway to get Eclipse to automatically look for static imports? For example, now that I've finally upgraded to Junit 4, I'd like to be able to write:

assertEquals(expectedValue, actualValue);

hit ctrl-SHIFT-O and have Eclipse add:

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;

Maybe I'm asking too much.

From stackoverflow

• Not exactly what I wanted, but I found a workaround. In Eclipse 3.4 (Ganymede), go to Window->Preferences->Java->Editor->Content Assist and check the checkbox for "Use static imports (only 1.5 or higher)".

  This will not bring in the import on an Optimize Imports, but if you do a Quick Fix (crtl-1) on the line it will give you the option to add the static import which is good enough.

• If you highlight the method Assert.assertEquals(val1, val2) and hit Ctrl-Shirt-M (Add Import), it will add it as a static import, at least in Eclipse 3.4.

• Eclipse 3.4 has a Favourites section under Window->Preferences->Java->Editor->Content Assist

  If you use org.junit.Assert a lot, you might find some value to adding it there.

  Grundlefleck : +1 for providing path to preferences screen.

• I'm using Eclipse Europa, which also has the Favorites preference section. In mine, I have the following entries

  org.hamcrest.Matchers.*
  org.junit.*
  org.junit.Assert.*
  org.junit.Assume.*
  org.junit.matchers.JUnitMatchers.*
  

  All but the second of those are static imports. By having those as favorites, if I type "assertT" and hit Ctrl-Space, Eclipse offers up assertThat as a suggestion, and if I pick it, it will add the proper static import to the file.

  Grundlefleck : +1 what a handy thing :-)

• With http://fast-code.sourceforge.net/ plugin you could static import a class. Then all the static member will come as code assist. You might want to take a look at that.
