Description Boris Boehlen CLA 2004-07-01 07:36:45 EDT 
The code formatter should provide the following options 
 1) Remove trailing spaces 
 2) Add e end with a new line.  
    Rationale: Any source files and text files in general should end with a  
    newline character, especially when using SCM systems such as CVS. CVS will  
    even print a warning when it encounters a file that doesn't end with a  
    newline (see checkstyle.sf.net)
Comment 1 Boris Boehlen CLA 2004-07-01 07:37:28 EDT 
Sorry 
2) should read 
 2)Add empty new line at the end of a file.
Comment 2 Olivier Thomann CLA 2004-08-17 11:57:34 EDT 
I disagree with these two options.
The first one is not an option. The code formatter must remove all trailing spaces.
I am adding the second option.

Comment 4 Olivier Thomann CLA 2004-08-19 10:55:06 EDT 
Do you have an example where the code formatter is not removing trailing spaces.
This is not an option for a code formatter.
The code formatter has to get rid of trailing spaces. So if you find a case
where this is not done, it is a bug. But if you want an option to keep trailing
spaces, it won't be done.
Comment 5 Olivier Thomann CLA 2004-08-20 11:59:50 EDT 
Closing as duplicate of bug 68506.
Please open another bug report with a test case if you find a case where the
code formatter is not removing trailing whitespaces.
Thanks.
