    Change @author default value

    by kerner1000

    Add user

    When adding a comment to a class, the @author element is added automatically. The author name is stored in the Template Variable {$user} and defaults to the currently logged in user name. To override that, edit eclipse.ini. Add

    -Duser.name=My Name
    

    It will look something like that:

    [..]
    -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
    -Xms256m
    -Xmx1024m
    --add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
    -Duser.name=My Name
    

    There are other variables you can define like that, e.g. -Duser.language=en or -Duser.region=US.
