Olabusayo Kilo commented on DAFFODIL-3036:
------------------------------------------
On initial attempt of formatting using plugin we run into a Java error. Looks
like the plugin relies on Java 11. Java 17 will probably be supported on the
next release, so might be best to wait till then or try a different plugin

> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Clean Ups
> Reporter: Steve Lawrence
> Priority: Major
>
> We currently use sbt-scalafmt to ensure we all follow a consisetnt set of
> coding guidelines. Even though sometimes scalafmt doesn't make the best
> decisions, at least things are consistent.
> We should consider doing something similar for our java code so that also
> follows a consitent standard.
> [sbt-java-formatter|https://github.com/sbt/sbt-java-formatter] seems to do
> something very similar to sbt-scalafmt but for Java. We should investigate if
> this provides reasonable formatting in-line with our style guidelines or if
> there is some other automated way ensure consistent style.
