eclipse not inserting “diamond” operator in a java 8 project

Question

I have a maven project configured to use Java 8 and all works fine, eclipse compiles code like:

Map map = new HashMap<>();
         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem but the solution to set everything to default didn't work for me. What worked for me is Java > Editor > Content Assist > Advanced and unchecking JPA Proposals in the upper window.
