The style for editing Java code. Note that the default value for c-default-style installs this style when you enter java-mode.

user

This is a special style created by you. It consists of the factory defaults for all the style variables as modified by the customizations you do either with the Customization interface or by writing setqs and c-set-offsets at the top level of your .emacs file (see Config Basics). The style system creates this style as part of its initialization and doesn’t modify it afterwards.
