Organizing Java Imports
Organizing imports automates the management of import statements in Java files. This feature minimizes
the amount of time that it takes to compile code by only importing the classes that are used. Existing im-
port statements are also sorted in a readable format and are more consistent between different Java
packages in the same project. Organizing of imports is applied to an entire file. To organize imports, from
the right-click context menu in the editor, click Imports
→
Organize Imports.
Adding Imports
Add Import is used to add an import statement for the class name under the cursor in Java code. To in-
voke this feature, move the cursor to the class name you want to import, then on the editor's right-click
context menu, click Import
→
Add Import.
Import Options
The behavior of the Organize Imports and Add Import features is controlled by the options on the Organ-
ize Imports Options dialog box, pictured below. To open this dialog, on the editor's right-click context
menu, click Imports
→
Options. For a list with descriptions of the options on this dialog, see Organize
