Bug ID: 385117
Summary: Python indentation indents too often since recent
update
Product: kate
Version: 17.08.1
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: indentation
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: maar...@treewalker.org
Target Milestone: ---
I've been using Kate with Python projects for a long time, but since a recent
update it hasn't been functioning well.
The problem is that it will often indent a line to line up with the line above
it. For languages like C this would be desired, but since in Python the end of
a block is identified by the indentation level decreasing, an editor should
never change the indentation of an existing line, since it changes the meaning
of the code being edited.
For example, if I start with this code fragment:
if x == 0:
foo()
y = x
and I then add "+ 1" to the third line, Kate will indent it like this:
if x == 0:
foo()
y = x + 1
which incorrectly pulls the third line into the if's body.
