Description tprochazka 2006-01-24 10:47:25 UTC 
NB now insert all new created method or fields at the end of file, but this is 
often doesn't the best. Great will be configuration interface for this.

For example. When I can implement any abstract method, I want put new methods 
to actual cursor position. Or when I add some property to JavaBean, I want put 
new set/get methods in alphabetical order with others JavaBean properties.

I suggest these options:
 - insert at the end of file
 - insert after last method (before fields)
 - insert to actual cursor position
 - maybe, insert in alphabetical order

Reassigning to java module for evaluation.
BTW if you use the code completion for e.g. method overriding the code should go
to the caret position.

We prefer insert to actual cursor position.
