Hello,
I am not sure if I understand correctly what you are talking about but if you talk about ReformatTask, than you should have a look here… JavaCC Parser Generator Integration Tutorial for the NetBeans Platform (apache.org) <https://netbeans.apache.org/tutorials/nbm-javacc-parser.html> Have a look at the section Implementing a New Feature: Reformatting at the end of the page. Format is activated in the text editor if you press Alt+Shift+F. If you want to learn Netbeans platform programming, this is a good starting point… Apache NetBeans DevFaq wiki index <https://netbeans.apache.org/wiki/index.asciidoc> Regards, Klaus Von: Andreas Reichel [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Sonntag, 25.

I have actually no idea, how to do that, but I managed to write a new Formatter Service, compile and deploy the plugin and to show the new Formatter Options: It is bound to the MimeType SQL("application/sql", "text/sql", "text/x-sql", "text/plain"). The problem is: when I open any SQL file and click on "Format", exactly NOTHING happens. No error message either. It does not look like I would trigger any formatting for this SQL File and I suspect that the MimeType does not match. Please can anyone lend me a helping hand, on how to trigger the Format Action for SQL files? What MimeType to use? Where to dig? Right now I am a bit lost honestly. Thank you a lot in advance, especially for your patience. Best regards Andreas
