Of course, this is the default.  Hooman, this question suggests that you are not very familiar with evolutionary computation methods.  This list is not for answering EC questions, but specifically discussing ECJ's implementation.

ECJ is not a frequent itemset tool.  It is up to you to decide how to encode such things in your individuals.

Try setting   stat.do-generation=true   in your parameters.  See Section 3.7 of the manual.
