I think everyone understands the theory. The trouble is putting it into practice. Tabs and spaces are invisible. Indentation is merely a code comment and not a part of the code. As a result, the benefits of applying tabbing rules to this non-functional whitespace is outweighed by the pain of trying to maintaining this invisible shadow structure, particularly when sharing code. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
