I think it was 80.
Why not not just follow the standard convention (http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConventions.doc3.html#313)? It will save time in having our own formatter, if we just follow the default language standards. (Whats the default IDEA template?).

Nope, its not say something is better, but I think its worth talking about unless you want to maintain top secrecy about your IDE :-) and we already talking about IDEA, isn't it? > > -- Chinthaka > > > > > -venkat > > > > > > > > On 7/10/05, Eran Chinthaka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi Glen and all, > > > > > > > > > > > Hi folks! > > > > > > > > I'm re-ramping up on the current state of Axis2, and hoping to dive in > > > > for some substantive coding work in the next few days (some work on > > > > modules and looking into RPC/enc).
