Hi Sandip,
I cannot reproduce this problem on my system (Windows Millenium,
Emacs 21.3.1, JDEE 2.3.3beta5), i.e., when I type
if
^
Emacs responds
if (
^
and prompts me to enter the if-clause in the minibuffer. If I enter
a==b in the minibuffer, Emacs completes the above expression as
if (a==b) {
} // end of if (a==b)
In other words, there are no extraneous spaces. Perhaps this problem
is specific to your setup.
