Description Frank McGrath CLA 2005-07-29 09:41:13 EDT 
It appears to ignore the setting and use 80 regardless of the setting.  It did 
leave one line of length 81 unwrapped. I tried settings of 100 and 120, and 
tried both long comments and long expressions; I always got wrapped at around 
80.

Martin, can you please check if this is still a problem in 3.1.
Comment 2 Martin Aeschlimann CLA 2005-07-29 09:51:04 EDT 
Olivier is the expert...
Comment 3 Martin Aeschlimann CLA 2005-07-29 09:55:06 EDT 
It also seems to me that the maximum line width is not enforced everywhere. E.g.
Open CopyToClipboardAction.java from the org.eclipse.search plugin and format it
with line width 60. Several lines stay very long but could be broken e.g. on dots.
Comment 4 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-08-01 18:10:29 EDT 
Could you please provide an example where the maximum length is always
considered to be 80?

Closing as WORKSFORME.
