Formatting problems in v8

*bump*

Any ideas about this? Does anyone else see this? Do I have something screwed up in my settings somehow?

Thanks,
Colin

have you checked your "Assignment statement" settings? (wrapping)..that's the only one I can thing of...

Hello Colin,

Please verify that the right margin is set to a reasonable value in the code
style settings. Also please check the settings in Code Style | Wrapping.
"Assignment sign on next line" and "Wrap after modifier list" options shouldn't
be checked.

We recently switched to IntelliJ 8, and since then we're seeing some
very strange formatting behaviour. We also switched from IPR format to
.idea, so I don't know if something in our settings might have been
changed in that process. Code that previously formatted like this:

private final Map<String, ContractorDatatypeMap[]>
contractorOutputByPortName
= new HashMap<String, ContractorDatatypeMap[]>();
now formats like this:

private final
Map<String, ContractorDatatypeMap[]>
contractorOutputByPortName
= new HashMap<String, ContractorDatatypeMap[]>();
Which is pretty ugly. I can't see any setting that might have caused
this, does anyone know why this might be happening?

Wow, that was actually it, thanks! I had it as "chop down if long", and changing it to "wrap if long" worked. Thanks, that was driving me nuts.

Cheers,

Hi Dmitry,

It actually seems to have been the "chop down if long" option for assignment statements. We have the margin set to 120 chars and don't have the "wrap after modifier list" checked. We do have "assignment sign on next line", is that not generally recommended?

Thanks,
Colin
