In December 2024, I contacted Carter (ckozak) about the status of the Palantir Formatter and received a reply within 24 hours. Both emails had you in Cc: did they not reach you? To summarize: the Palantir Formatter is still actively maintained. If there’s an issue with a specific ticket, a quick ping to Carter will get the maintainers’ attention. Given that, I don’t see a strong reason to switch formatters. While the Eclipse formatter is a powerful tool, it comes with so many configurable options that agreeing on a standard could take months. In a previous job, we spent four months reviewing formatting configurations, only to end up adding comments to bypass rules we didn’t like (e.g., aligned field initializers). Piotr PS: The Eclipse formatter is also supported by Spotless and relies on the Eclipse artifacts published to Maven Central, so there’s no need to deal with P2 repositories. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
