I have a C++ project. http://blogs.sun.com/netbeansphp/entry/formatting_tabs_and_indents leads me to hope that I should be able to set per-project formatting options. I can't see any way to do that in the UI, and I looked and looked. This seems not to be implemented for C++ projects.
There are no C/C++ project specific formatting options. C/C++ formatting options "Override Global Options" overrides options for all languages: - expand tabs to spaces - number of spaces per indent - tab size
I could not find any checkbox in my C++ project options that would let me override the global options.
Tools->Options->Editor->Formatting->C++ - check box "Override Global Options"
I think it's about Formatting options in Project Properties (as for Java projects)

Java projects have this project-level coding style management feature already for years. Is there any plan to port it over in the future releases? It is an important feature for slaves (like me) who are working on many projects at a same time.

Hi az.pengwang, We are not planning to implement this enchantment because: - bug has only one vote - use case is not clear (it similar to the rarely used. For example: a) user work on bunch of company project and each project has own formatting style. I hardly believe in this scenario. b) user work on bunch of company projects with common formatting and for enjoying develops third part project with different formatting style.) Alexander
We really long for this feature. It's a very common scenario, when you work on a few C/C++ projects with different mandatory formatting. Especially the maintenance of legacy projects is typical.

There is no need to speculate about the use cases. I personally met a few customers who said they need this. Typical case is maintenance of legacy code.

There are definitely more user cases are looking for this feature. I am typical user in your category "a". I am working on three different types of projects, one is firmware based on third parties' code, one is Linux, and the other is open source. They all have different coding style. Regards, Peng

looks like C++ development Heaven is approaching :)
keep fingers crossed:)
