I have this class

public class X {
    final int i;
    final int j;
    ...
}

This class doesn't compile. I have to tediously write the constructor and repeat all field types and names and then assignments. Scala has case classes, which work the same way, but don't have the boilerplate.

It would be great if I could just auto-generate the constructor using Eclipse:

public class X {
    final int i;
    final int j;
    ...

    public X(int i, int j, ...) {
        this.i = i;
        this.j = j;
        ...
    }
}
