I have been written for this bug since version 3.0.1 of eclipse, but nothing has changed. So I am writing again for this bug: WHEN I HAVE A COMMENT LIKE /* System.out.print("This "); System.out.print("is "); System.out.print("a "); System.out.print("test"); int i = 0; while (i < 10) { System.out.print('!'); i++; } System.out.println(); */ IN MY SOURCE CODE, AND I AM GOING TO AUTO FORMAT THE SOURCE CODE BY PRESSING CTRL-SHIFT-F, I WILL GET THE FOLLOWING CODE: /* * System.out.print("This "); System.out.print("is "); * System.out.print("a "); System.out.print("test"); int i = 0; while (i < * 10) { System.out.print('!'); i++; } System.out.println(); */ IS THERE ANYBODY WHO UNDERSTAND ME THAT THIS COULD BE HORRIBLE FOR ME WHEN I HAVE TO GET SOME PARTS (NOT THE WHOLE CODE, ONLY SOME USABLE PARTS) OF THE OLD ALGORITHM BACK? FOR EXAMPLE TRY TO EXTRACT THE WHILE LOOP INSIDE THE COMMENT.
Why don't you put your code within <pre> tag? And no need to yell at us! This is really unpleasant.
Please reopen when you provide the requested information.
reopening to close properly.
closing since didn't hear back in a long time; and no action planned. <pre> tag is the right way to go as far as javadoc is involved
