Description Oliver Wong CLA 2010-02-25 14:08:00 EST 
Build Identifier: M20090917-0800

 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a file "Test.java" with the following contents:

/**
 * <pre>
 *    A
 *   / \
 *  B   C
 * / \ / \
 *D  E F  G
 * </pre>
 */

2. Press CTRL-F to cause the code to get formatted.
3. Observe that the "D" gets deleted, resulting in:

/**
 * <pre>
 *    A
 *   / \
 *  B   C
 * / \ / \
 *   E F  G
 * </pre>
 */

Here's the formatter I used to replicate the bug; not sure if the bug exists with other formatters.

In your formatter settings you must disable to format code inside <pre> tags.

This was indeed broken up to and including 3.5.1, but has been fixed for 3.5.2.
