I use Netbeans 7.2.1, when I type private String a(Java code), the IDE shows a tip window aString which asks me to name a variable with its type as postfix. In addition, when I continue to type ;, it completes the code with private String aString;. Actually, I do not like this naming style, so, how to change the settings?
