If I type “new Runnable” and hit CTRL+SPACE, Eclipse allows me to create an anonymous inner class. However when I do the same with “Thread”, it does not.

It is a bit annoying that every time I need an anonymous thread, I have to create a new Runnable and then change the “Runnable” to “Thread”.

Is there a way to let Eclipse automatically create a thread as well?

    As a workaround you could create a new template for the thread creation.

    Eclise (at least in 3.7) alreay has one for Runnable. You can try it if you type runnable and then Ctrl+Space until the template proposals are shown.

    To create a new template for Thread:

    • Open the template view Window > Show View > Templates
    • Select runnable
    • Copy/Paste from the context menu
    • Edit the new Template by replacing Runnable with Thread
