+== Disable Eclipse Formatting (partially)
+
+Sometimes, the Eclipse code formatting results in correct but untidy indentation, for example when Java Persistence annotations or long sequences of lined-up assignments are formatted.
+You can disable formatting for sections of code.
+
+. Ensure that Off/On Tags are enabled in Eclipse
+ . In menu:Eclipse[Window > Preferences > Java > Code Style > Formatter] window press kbd:[Edit...]
+ . Click on the __Off/On Tags__ tab
+ . Ensure that the __Enable Off/On Tags__ checkbox is checked
+. Surround the section of code that you do not want the formatter to act on with comments containing the Off/On tags
+
