Description Uwe Kubosch 2006-10-13 03:47:03 EDT

The Sun Java Code conventions state in section 6.1 that multiple field declarations should be on separate lines without forcing blank lines between them.  The example given is:

int level; // indentation level
int size; // size of table

There is no blank line between the two declaration.

Please change the setting for Java Conventions [built-in] to

org.eclipse.jdt.core.formatter.blank_lines_before_field=0

and keep or increase

org.eclipse.jdt.core.formatter.number_of_empty_lines_to_preserve=1

to allow for separating groups of fields.

Thank you for your good work, and I hope you can perform this change in an upcoming milestone.
