Description tomzi 2011-12-07 09:10:21 UTC

In our 250 people company most use Eclipse for development. We also use a shared Code Formatter to mostly ensure that there are no svn differences from pure code formatting. 

However, some also use Netbeans, but there is currently no Netbeans supported way to import code formatting settings that are used by eclipse.

Please provide a way
A) To import formatter settings into Tools/Options/Editor/Formatting
B) Or automatic detection and use of the maven Eclipse Format Plugin
   - http://mvneclipsefmt.sourceforge.net/usage.html
   - http://maven-java-formatter-plugin.googlecode.com/svn/site/0.3.1/usage.html

A) is usable also for ANT projects
B) especially for maven projects

Regards and continue the great work!
