Source Code Formatting in kdev4

[Megan Webb]

Hi Everyone,

I know I've been a bit silent (and absent from irc) lately, but now am 
back:)

For source code formatting in  Kdev 4, I've started a wiki page at:
http://kdevelop.org/mediawiki/index.php/Source_Code_Formatter
with some ideas I've had. Feel free to update, or comment here on
what is listed.

Really open to any ideas and suggestions you have at the moment for 
formatting.

I can say that I'm keen to have uncrustify as well as astyle support. My 
thought is
that if we (I) drop using the library interface of the formatter, and 
use either that
the formatter supports command line switches, or a configuration file of 
options,
then we can then more easily support having other code formatters.

The alternative is to continue to support astyle as is, and add options 
for uncrustify
and others. 

My reasoning for this is to (hopefully) be able to offer some support 
for code formatters for
languages other than C/C++ and Java. 

Regards


Megan (aka Sirine)
