Code formatter: define and hook code formatting enforcement for github PRs -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-24797 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-24797 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Enhancement Components: devdoc Affects Versions: 4.5.0.Final Reporter: Andre Dietisheim Fix For: 4.5.1.AM1 Code formatting differs across developers. We should be at least consistent since odd formatting makes reading code more difficult for obvious reasons. The most prominent differences I am aware of are * use spaces vs tabs * differences in formatting "if statements" (as displayed [here|https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-openshift/pull/1536/files#d...]): {code} if(XX){ {code} vs {code} if (XX) { {code} * insonsitent code identations like displayed [here|https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-openshift/pull/1535/files#d...]: {code} public void method() { int i = 0; i++; i +=2; {code} * odd identations of whole anonymous classes as displayed [here|https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-openshift/pull/1531/files#d...] {code} class Listener { int i = 0; public void method() { } } {code} * multiple empty lines for no obvious reason like shown [here|https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-openshift/pull/1535/files#d...] {code} public class ZZ { int i = 0; i++ } {code}
