Title: Code formatter/beutifier
Post by: cane on May 03, 2006, 10:56:54 AM

The code formatter included in the IDE is somewhat limited (or at least not very configurable/customizable). Would it be possible to include into the IDE one of the many open source C code formatters out there? I mean, using/including the source of a beautifier into the IDE source and then having the possibility to configure the beatutifier via dialogs and/or settings file.

Few projects:

• http://www.gnu.org/software/indent/
• http://sourceforge.net/projects/astyle/
• http://sourceforge.net/projects/gcgreatcode/

Thanks, bye.

You can write an add-in DLL for this. It shouldn't be that hard. Look for example at AddIn_GetSourceText() and AddIn_SetSourceText().
