Description _ sandipchitale 2006-11-12 20:42:23 UTC 
Use of , as a separator between parameter declarations as well as method 
invocation arguments is assymetric i.e. there is no comma after the last 
parameter or argument. This causes a lot of editing operations while trying to 
reorder the parameter declarations and arguments. The IDEs editor should have 
support to easily reorder these taking care of moving the , around.

The Reoder module supports this functionality. See:

Nice, what file types does your module support? Thanks
Comment 3 _ sandipchitale 2008-01-02 15:19:06 UTC 
Only Java files as it makes use of javan (Retouche) apis to figure out the span of each item in the sequence, which could be a complex expression. A 
SPI should be created though so that other languages could support the same functionality.

Let's start with java then.
