Re: [hibernate-dev] Code style and whitespaces
Well you assume it is consistent, which I agree is the important point it
determining whether to make this a rule. So let's examine that...
Would you also agree that this is better:
private void doIt (String it) { ... }
than:
private void doIt ( String it ) { ... }
?
Which ruleset should catch statements belong?

Sure, I agree on you on that

because the arguments list cannot contain parens. Same for exception
catching btw..
But does that mean that you should not use spaces. Does it become less
readable to use 'catch ( IllegalArgumentException e )' instead of 'catch
(IllegalArgumentException e)'?
As Gunnar is saying, for consistency reason it would make sense to apply
spaces in this case as well.
