Line wrapping in Eclipse Java formatter

Question

I'm trying to configure the Java code formatter to have a compact formatting. I've set the policy to "Wrap where necessary", and maximum line width to 80, but either it wraps where it shouldn't, or it doesn't wrap where it should... Here is an example of what I get:

// -------------------------------------------------------------------------80->
public class FormatterTest {
    void test() {
        int i, a = 1, b = 1, c = 1, d = 1;
        i =
                a
                        * b
                        * c
                        * d
                        * (100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000
                                + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000);
    }
}
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------80->

And what I'd like:

    i = a * b * c * d * (100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000
            + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000);

Thanks for your help.

You can suppress the formatting if you add an // at the end of the line:

i = a * b * c * d * (100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 //
        + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000 + 100000000);
