Place your cursor inside a class and then press Ctrl+Space to trigger Content Assist.

When doing so, the list of proposals includes constraints that are available to override.

The adjacent Proposal Tooltip includes information about the action that will be performed.

Upon choosing the constraint, a corresponding constraint stub will be generated at the cursor’s location.

The constraints may be filtered by typing additional keywords such as static.
