Section 6.4 of the 23 year old coding guidelines https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/codeconventions-150003.pdf appear to suggest {} for empty methods. However I know this only because I went to look. I would have guessed the opposite .. and prefer that opposite.
On the other side lots of classes in the client-libs(for example in the "java.awt.event" package) use such style: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/java/awt/event/ComponentAdapter.java https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/java/awt/event/ContainerAdapter.java https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/java/awt/event/KeyAdapter.java etc. So maybe this is a common practice -- Best regards, Sergey.
