a little bit offtopic, but i want to ask some devs about that.

I tried the new PDT 2.0. There is a source formatter. But it only intends
and replaces tabs with spaces or vice versa - There are no advanced settings
possible like brace policy, indentation, array syntax, etc. like in Zend
Studio (of course).
My question now to those who use PDT Eclipse: How do you format your PHP
Source Code more detailed - According to a coding style like the Zend
Framework Style? We use PHP_CodeSniffer to detect Coding Style Violations.
But is there a tool - perhaps an eclipse plugin, which formats the source
code according to a coding style definition? Is PHP_Beautifer the right tool
for me? - I can't see any advanced settings possibilities either in its
documentation.

I found one tool which comes very close to my needs.

But it is also only a compromise, because many things still missing.

The best solution would be a Pear_CodeFormatter (does not exist) which reads
the style definition in a xml format and PHP_CodeSniffer would also be able
to understand this xml style definition file.



I appreciate any tipps or suggestions.


Best regards

Tom
