Hello, today I installed NB 6.0 beta 2. I tried to setup the rules for automatic formatting of java sources and I found several issues: 1/ JavaExample in Fonts&Colors->Syntax is too simple. There should be fields (static & non-static), method calls (again static & non-static, constructors, public/protected/private members etc. The user cannot see how the code would look with the changes he has made. The only possibility is to save changes, close a file and open it again (no automatic update!) 2/ Java Code - blank lines cannot be used well. There are no settings for comments (blank line after/before), but the main problem for me is that it cannot be turned off. With blank lines formatting I cannot achieve code like this: [code] public static final int CONSTANT1 = 0; public static final int CONSTANT2 = 1; public static final int CONSTANT3 = 2; //after reformatting, this line is missing private int attribute; [/code] 3/ Formatting of inline classes declaration - If I declare a class like this: [code] container.add(new Canvas() { public void paint(Graphics g) { //... } }); [/code] The code is not indented properly. 4/ Two variable declarations on the same line - I was trying to write this code: [code] int i, j; [/code] after reformatting it becomes: [code] int i, j; [/code] I didn't find a settings to change this behaviour. With these issuses, I cannot use NB 6.0 and I have to stay with NB 5.5
Overtake.
