There's currently no such thing as a 'class template'. There are javadoc
templates which are automatically added to new classes (type_comment and
file_comment). You can create your own templates (Window :: Preferences ::
Java :: Templates) if you want, however, you'll have to trigger code-assist
(Ctrl-Space) to apply the template. If you want something like selecting a
class template out of the new class wizard, please file a feature request
(http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/).
