how to use the sysout snippet in eclipse with selected text

Question

“Sysout” has neatly replaced with System.out.println() when the tab is completed in Eclipse. But I need to wrap some existing code in a System.out.println(). How can I do this?

Answer 1

The sysout template acts upon entire Java Statements

1. Select the statement in the editor

2. Press Ctrl+SPACE

3. Type sysout and press enter. Now you can see that sysout will temporarily overwrite your statement(This will come back wrapped by System.out.println when you press enter).
