We are considering enabling auto-formatting of source code during the build process in RESTEasy. This would use the formatter-maven-plugin [1] and the impsort-maven-plugin [2] to format the source code.

This will allow all code to be uniform without having to know which code style to use in your IDE. You would simply run a Maven lifecycle that invokes the process-sources lifecycle event and your source code would be formatted. This lifecycle should be run anyway before a commit happens :)

If you've got any concerns or questions about this, please feel free to reach out.
