Eclipse: quick add brackets, quotation marks, etc like in NetBeans

Netbeans has this small feature: I have some text in my editor like This is a text. When I select this text, and press the " key, the selected text gets surrounded by that character. So I get "This is a text". This works with brackets too, by pressing [ I get [This is a text]... etc... It even replaces the first and the last characters if they are special, so after pressing " on 'Text' it becames "Text"...

anyway... is there any similar functionality in eclipse?

Could be a nice addition to Eclipse! Please open a bug against Eclipse JDT/UI https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=JDT

I think not. With Eclipse you can do the inverse. Click on " and write the text, you will get "text"
