When working on C code in Eclipse (Mars, in case that matters), I type /* to begin a stream comment. If I hit [Enter] any time within this stream comment, Eclipse automatically inserts a column of single-space indented stars _* and a single-space indented close stream comment _*/. This is incredibly annoying as this is never the behavior I want after opening a stream comment. I then have to undo-undo or highlight and delete.

I've gone into C/C++ > Editor > Typing and unchecked every option in the Automatically close group-box, but these options only include "Strings", (Parentheses) and [Square Brackets], <Angle> brackets and {Braces}.

There's no /*Comments*/ option.

I've even tried modifying every code template that contains such a stream comment, to no avail.

How can I get Eclipse to stop auto-completing comments?


I've checked these similar questions and found no answer: Annoying eclipse automatically closing quotes, Stop Eclipse from mangling my comments, eclipse disable completion of xml comment, How to stop Eclipse from auto-adding parentheses?
