Description Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-09 03:24:43 UTC 
Just to don't fortet this....

Consider using org.openide.text.IndentEngine instead of current code for
templates formatting. Jesse believes that depending on
org.netbeans.modules.editor.lib is bad. True is, that current formatting code is
rather copy-pasted-adjusted magic than readable code.
Comment 1 Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-09 03:25:34 UTC 
Let's say 5.0 and maybe set future later.
Comment 2 Martin Krauskopf 2008-02-07 17:51:04 UTC 
I'm not working on APISupport anymore. Reassigning to owner of the component, so
the issue is not 'forgotten' forever.
Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2008-06-20 02:41:59 UTC 
Need to check with editor team to see what the recommended APIs are.
Comment 4 Vitezslav Stejskal 2008-06-23 12:47:49 UTC 
I'm not sure what you need, but I think editor.indent module - Reformat.format(...) - should help.
Comment 5 Vitezslav Stejskal 2008-10-16 10:41:33 UTC 
Whatever you decide to do please do not use IndentEngine. They are generally poor designed and totally wrong for
per-project formatting settings. As I said earlier Reformat class from editor.indent is what you should use for
formatting documents.
Comment 6 Jesse Glick 2008-11-07 03:04:18 UTC 
In fact IndentEngine (which apisupport currently uses) is now deprecated.
