Hi,

I would like Eclipse to automatically save every time I edit a file, in much the same way that it builds automatically. Because I've been using IntelliJ for the last year (which saves automatically by default), I keep having the following problem:

  • Make some changes in Eclipse
  • Forget to press save
  • Run the build, unit tests, and notice some strange behaviour
  • (Some time later....) realise that the unexpected behaviour occurred because I forgot to save the changes

Is there any way I can make Eclipse save automatically?

Thanks, Don
