Eclipse Package Explorer: Hide part of long package names?

Question

I\'ve been searching for a \"problem\" that have annoyed me for a while (but without any luck).

I am developing an Android application with the rather long package name

Answer 1

You can configure package name abbreviations in Helios (3.6) or later. Go to Window > Preferences > Java > Appearance to set up abbreviation rules.

For example, com.kennethbrodersen.simplepod could be configured to be displayed as {KBsimple} with the rule com.kennethbrodersen.simplepod={KBsimple}.
