I filed a bug about the "General Tag Handlers" functionality going into an infinate cycle when the code formatter had the option "Enter newline before brace". Now it seems this bug is fixed and closed, but the generated tag handlers do not honor the format setting. So I'm wondering if the fix to the previous bug, was to simply not ever enter a newline before brace when generating tag handlers (maybe a quick workaround was put in place?) Anyway this is reported against the January 18th nightly build.
Yes I noticed that, but I don't consider this as P2 bug. The simple workaround is to preformat the source. The previous bug was fixed as I know. This bug shouldn't cause any serious problems.
Would it be reasonable to set this as a 3.6 target?
Yes, I am doing that.
Thank you
Not easy to fix. Set target milestone to promo D.
The issue still exists in 4.0 dev, but not in such an extent. The generated tag handler is formatted well except of setter methods corresponding to tag attributes (at the end of tag handler). I am downgrading this issue to P5 as this doesn't cause any problems. The tag handler generation (in wizard) is the one-way process now. User can format the tag handler after it is generated, than nothing will change the formatting back (as it happened in 3.6 when Generate Tag Handler action was invoked repeatedly).
As a workaround why not just generate the file, then in the background run the formatter on the file and call it a day?
Closing, this is no longer of interest.
