Enclosing function names also seems like an extra feature that could be pulled out, btw. ================ Comment at: lib/Format/Format.cpp:920 + if (LanguageFound) { + for (int i = Styles.size() - 1; i >= 0; --i) { + if (Styles[i].Language == FormatStyle::LK_None) { ---------------- djasper wrote: > krasimir wrote: > > djasper wrote: > > > I think this is getting a bit convoluted and I don't even understand > > > whether we are doing what is document (even before this patch). > > > > > > So in lines 892-905, we verify that: > > > - Only the first Style in the file is allowed be LK_None. > > > - No language is duplicated. > > > > > > That seems good. > > > > > > According to the documentation: "The first section may have no language > > > set, it will set the default style options for all lanugages.".

I agree that we should test the inheritance if it's documented :) I don't have super strong feelings where the logic of implementing that inheritance lives - both the function that parses the data and the data structure we hand around seem fine for that, as it's easy to change That said, I do agree that FormatStyle being a recursive graph data structure is weird and unexpected; I had to ask Daniel what he actually meant here, and then went "how does this even work??!" before realizing that FormatStyle is both a single style and also containing all other styles. -> in conclusion, I agree with Daniel: we should have a FormatStyleSet and pass that around everywhere. That's a pure refactoring that looks like it would already make the current code better, so I also agree it should be done first and be covered by existing tests.
