Intellij Idea - automatically add final keyword to the generated variables

The new introduced code convention require to use the "final" keyword where possible.

The question is - is there a possibility to automatically generate the variables with this keyword ? For example - I select a code fragment:

"bla"+"bla"+"bla"

and press ctrl+alt+v - the IDE generates a variable like this:

String blaString = "bla"+"bla"+"bla";

but I need it to be

final String blaString = "bla"+"bla"+"bla";

P.S. I know about inspections and the possibility "fix them all", but it can't be used everywhere as there is a lot of old code that shouldn't be refactored without reason.

Go to preferences -> Code Style -> Code Generation and enable "Make generated local variables final" in the "Final modifier" section. You can also try searching for "final" in preferences.

In IntelliJ 14.1.3

1. Preferences > Editor > Code Style > Java
2. To the far right ,there's a tab called Code Generation
3. In the section called Final Modifier there are two choices: * Make generated local variables final * Make generated parameters final

For Windows User;

Go to File -> Settings -> Editor -> Code Style -> Select Preferred Language (Java) -> Checkbox -> Make generated local variables final, Make generated parameters final -> Apply -> OK

After selecting "introduce local variable" there is a little gear to the right of the variable name. Click that and check "Declare final". That variable will be marked as final and Intellij will remember your preference until changed.
