Greetings Overflowers,

Problem:

public abstract class Filter {
    private long     id;
    protected String expression;
}

how can I align fields automatically in Eclipse, such in:

public abstract class Filter {
    private   long   id;
    protected String expression;
}

Note the space before long, thank you !

UPDATE: I cannot find a customization option to align types of class members (e.g.: long and String) under Eclipse formatter options. Yes, there is one to align names of class members (e.g.: id and expression) but not their types. Please, take a lock at this issue in my examples above. Any solution ?
