The formatter follows java formatting conventions. But definitely there is a space for more formatting settings |
In 6.8, automatic formatting for multiline alignment seems to have changed from 6.7. If I manually add a line-break after an operator, then in 6.7 it would align correctly with the start of the expression. In 6.8, it now removes the line-break and returns the remainder of the statement back to the original line. This does not happen if the line-break is before the operator, only when it is after. As an example: int a = 1 + 2; "Source > Format" becomes: int a = 1 + 2; However, if I start with: int a = 1 + 2; "Source > Format" becomes: int a = 1 + 2; This is throwing a number of checkstyle errors at me as I'm wanting the operator to be before the break, and not at the start of the new line.
