I'm try to format multiple ICompilationUnit(s) at the same time, however, I'm 
running in to a snag. when I try the following...it will put extra characters 
in some of the source files.

  ICompilationUnit[] cus = getCompilationUnits(selection);
  ICodeFormatter formatter = ToolFactory.createCodeFormatter();

  for (int i = 0; i < cus.length; i++) {
    try {
      IBuffer buf = cu.getBuffer();
      String contents = formatter.format(buf.getContents(), 0, null, null);
      buf.setContents(contents);
      buf.save(monitor, true);
    } catch (JavaModelException e) {
      JavaPlugin.log(e);
    }
  }

However, when I move the "ICodeFormatter formatter..." line inside the "for" 
loop, it works correctly. I'm guessing that when the formatting by the 
formatter is done, it is not flushing its buffer correctly. BTW, the formatter 
is the default CodeFormatter.

I would prefer to only have one code formatter instantiated since some of my 
projects have 1000s of java files.
