Issue
Is there a way to call the Eclipse Java formatting engine (which is also apparently used by the Red Hat VSCode Java extension) from the command line?
Solution
Yes, you can run the Eclipse formatter from the command line using an Eclipse Java IDE package or the Eclipse SDK. See Eclipse help: Java development user guide > Tasks > Using the Formatter Application:
eclipse -noSplash -vm <path to virtual machine> -data <workspace> -application org.eclipse.jdt.core.JavaCodeFormatter [ OPTIONS ] <files>
