Description richwilsonaus 2007-12-05 03:27:37 UTC 
If the desired code formatting is to remove braces where not required for "if" statements (Tools.. Options.. Java 
Code.. Formatting.. Braces Generation, "if" set to "Eliminate") the following code:

    if (a) {
      if (b) {
        
      }
    }
    else { // !a
      
    }

will have the logic changed after formatting to:

    if (a)
      if (b) {

      }
    else { // !a   (- Now a && !b)

    }

This bug has destroyed the logic in a number of my source files.
