Here's an optional Java source code reformatting task based around Chris Seguin's PrettyPrinter and JRefactory code.
The task is currently about as simple as it can get, I'm posting it here on the
basis that it works, and other people may have more time than I have to make it
better!
Currently it can be used in one of only two ways:
<javastyle file="src/SourceFile.java" />
or:
<javastyle>
<fileset dir="src">
<include name="**/*.java" />
</fileset>
</javastyle>
In-other-words, it either takes a single file attribute or standard filesets
(with all their options and variations).
The code reformatter then reformats the original file. It does not currently
have any option for saving the result in another location.
All the formatting preferences are stored in the same .JRefactory/ directory of
preference files as the original PrettyPrinter code uses. If no preferences
already exist, these will be generated the first time the task is used.
Clearly, it would be better in the future if all these preferences could be set
as attributes to this task.
I enclose the JavaStyle.jar file zipped to this email. I would include the
relevant patches to the build, and taskdefs files, but the jakarta-ant CVS
seems to be down at the moment.
Finally, it all depends on having the JRefactory library file included in your
ant build. This can be downloaded from:
<http://users.snip.net/~aseguin/csrefactory.html>.
Hope someone finds this useful. It would be great to see this streamlined into
something that could be used painlessly. Currently the reformatting has its
limitations, but is nevertheless pretty good.
Regards,
Stuart.
