Stop Eclipse from mangling my comments -

Is there any way to prevent eclipse from engaging in comments in my source files?

My main issue is preventing them from wrapping the word. I have managed to configure Eclipse to wrap any code, but it is still doing this for comments.

I enter that code like this:

  public int myVariable = 100; // This variable is a very interesting variable and it does a lot of things  

ending like this:

  public int myVariable = 100; // This variable // is a very // interesting // variable and // it's a lot of stuff /  

Go to the "Window" menu -> Preferences - select the editor that you are interested in on the left-hand list. (Java for example)
Then there should be a sub-section "Code style", and under "Formatter".

Then you will need to create a new formatter profile (the underlying profile can not be edited) There are options for comment formatting on the last tab of the profile configuration
