Changing author name in Eclipse IDE

It is very easy to change author name in Eclipse IDE.
Steps:

  1. open eclipse.ini file in the eclipse directory
  2. add the following line after -vmargs line -Duser.name=your name

Example of my eclipse.ini:

...
-vmargs
-Duser.name=FaYnaSoft Labs
...

Also you can change it from here:
Preferences -> Java -> Code Style -> Code Templates -> Comments ->Types and change $(user) to your desired author name.
Example:

@author $(user) -> @author FaYnaSoft Labs

After that all my new classes, interfaces and etc. will generate FaYnaSoft Labs as author.
