Let me be a little bit more specific (since I am not actually using
eclipse and might misinterpret the actual change made to its formatter

tabs should always be 8 everywhere.

*) For emacs I use the following hook in my .emacs:

(add-hook 'java-mode-hook
  (lambda ()
    (c-set-style "GNU")
    (c-set-offset 'inline-open 0)))
