Description Andreas Wuest CLA 2003-09-18 05:26:33 EDT 
Hi,

i have the following feature request : 
under Window->Preferences->Java->Code Formatter it
is possible to change the way the code is formatted. However it is not
possible to tell eclipse to
insert a space between the method name / class name and the following
opening bracket :

e.g :
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
sb.toString();

however i want the code to look like :

StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer ();
sb.toString ();                   ^
           ^               a space character
      a space character

i'd be really nice if you could add that feature.

thanks in advance,

 Andreas

This will be available with the new formatter. We hope to be able to integrate
it for M4.

This is addressed in the new formatter. It won't be the default setting, but as
soon as the preference page is ready, this is doable.
Fixed and released in HEAD.
Regression test added.
