Description Gary Gregory CLA 2003-10-10 14:06:01 EDT 
It would be nice if doing a source format would line up *'s. For example:

Before:

/**
* ...
*
*/

After:

/**
 * ...
 *
 */
Comment 1 Gary Gregory CLA 2003-10-10 14:06:17 EDT 
(Version 3.0.m3)
Comment 2 Olivier Thomann CLA 2003-10-10 16:24:18 EDT 
Are you using the new formatter?
Comment 3 Gary Gregory CLA 2003-10-10 17:25:43 EDT 
How can I tell? I am using 3.0.m3.
Comment 4 Gary Gregory CLA 2003-10-12 17:25:03 EDT 
I can now see that I am NOT using the new formatter.
Comment 5 Olivier Thomann CLA 2003-10-14 09:08:32 EDT 
To use the new formatter, you need to activate it in the Preferences>Java>Work 
in progress page.
Comment 6 Olivier Thomann CLA 2003-10-14 09:25:08 EDT 
Is this still an issue after enabling the new formatter?
Comment 7 Gary Gregory CLA 2003-10-14 11:50:10 EDT 
This now works as is in 3.0.m4, without Preferences changes to use the new
formatter. Weird.
Comment 8 Olivier Thomann CLA 2003-10-14 11:53:02 EDT 
This might be because the jdt/ui is formatting the javadoc comments without 
using the code formatter. You need to disable the formatting of javadoc 
comments in the code formatter preference page. See the Comments tab. You 
should have the "format comments" option selected.
Ok to close as INVALID?
Comment 9 Gary Gregory CLA 2003-10-14 12:03:23 EDT

Comment 10 Olivier Thomann CLA 2003-10-14 12:05:10 EDT 
Close as INVALID.
