This plugin connects Eclipse code formatter to IDEA. It is not a conversion
of formatting settings, nor does it converts the settings. I had to get
Eclipse, set up OpenNLP project there, import .xml file with settings from
the site, then point the plugin to settings. Not a big deal for me, but may
be a deal-breaker for somebody. The advantage is 100% compliance with
project code formatting rules.
By the way, the example on the page should be changed to have "catch" on
the same line with the closing bracket ;)
from this:
} catch(NumberFormatException e) {
to this:
} catch(NumberFormatException e) {
It's easy to test this - import the OpenNLP-Eclipse-Formatter.xml settings
from the site into Eclipse, copy-paste the example, format, see :)
Also, existing code base does not conform to this standard :) And, although
I would add bracket forcing for "for" and "if" and others similar
statements to the current code formatting standard (as a safety measure I
explained earlier) before reformatting anything, the best example of even
the current code format would be a formatted code base itself. And yes, a
check-in hook to be sure it remains so :)
