Comment 3 Dani Megert CLA 2005-04-13 05:33:46 EDT 
JDT Core change the "Clear blank lines in comments"
(FORMATTER_COMMENT_CLEAR_BLANK_LINES) preference from FALSE to TRUE when
adopting the comment formatter from JDT UI.

You can simply uncheck this preference again to get the old behavior.
Comment 4 Jerry Mising name CLA 2005-04-13 06:36:44 EDT 
But where can I find the option in Preferences?
Comment 5 Dani Megert CLA 2005-04-13 06:40:35 EDT 
Java > Code Style > Formatter - Edit... (Comments tab)
Comment 6 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-04-13 09:39:51 EDT 
I will change the default value.
Comment 7 Jerry Mising name CLA 2005-04-13 09:51:17 EDT 
I don't think we are talking same software.
I get "Java > Code Style > Formatter", but I can't find "- Edit... (Comments 
tab)".
See attachement.

Where is "- Edit... (Comments tab)"?
Comment 9 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-04-13 09:57:23 EDT 
Jim, this is a mistake in the default settings of the code formatter
preferences. I will fix it even if this is an API change for the default value.
Ok for you?
Comment 10 Dani Megert CLA 2005-04-13 10:09:08 EDT 
Try "Show..."
Comment 11 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-04-13 10:20:04 EDT 
Fixed as this is indeed a regression compare to previous version of 3.1
milestone builds.
Comment 12 Olivier Thomann CLA 2005-04-13 10:20:21 EDT 
Regression test added in FormatterRegressionTests.test574.
Comment 13 Maxime Daniel CLA 2005-05-13 06:59:54 EDT 
Verified for 3.1 M7 using build I20050512-2035 + jdt.core HEAD.
