Hello
In order to provide code with least difference, are there any coding
guidelines concerning where paranthesis are supposed to be placed,
whether to use tabs or space, etc.? I tried to define an Eclipse
formatter configuration, that does least "damage" to existing
classes. But among the classes, paranthesis are placed different,
indention is made with tabs or spaces, has the size of 2 or 4, line
wrapping is different, etc., so formtatting a class with my formatter
almost always ends up in many differences.
Alas we've not had a standard in a while, so different people have
done different things. I'm tempted to say that we should go for the
same code layout that Tika uses, since there's overlap in the
committership and code, and it's a fairly standard one. Does anyone
have strong opinions either way?
Searching on http://tika.apache.org/, I couldn't find a code format
definition document or rule file anywhere. Could you provide the code
formatter settings or a link where to find them?
Thanks and kind regards,
Stefan Stern
