Setting the Order of Import Statements

1.

From the menu bar, select Window > Preferences > Java > Organize Imports.

2.

The imports list defines the sorting order of import statements. In the imports list, manage the list of package prefixes as follows:

  • Click Add to add a new prefix
  • Click Remove to remove the selected prefix from the list
  • Click the Up and Down buttons to rearrange the sequence of the list by moving the selected prefix up or down

3.

In the Number of qualified imports before * is used field, type the number of import statements that are allowed to refer to the same package before <package prefix>.* is used. This number is called the import threshold.

4.

Click OK when you are done.
