Custom Quick Assist - how to determine code indentation? [message #533534]

Hello world Smile

I've managed to write an Eclipse plugin that provides me with my custom quick assist in the Java editor. Thanks for all the pointers you guys gave me.

I've got a follow-up question: if I have a covering node as ASTNode, is there any way to get information about the "visual" structure of the code at that place, e.g. indentation? What I want to do is surround a line of code with a braced if statement, so I'd like the inserted code to be indented correctly. Right now I'm doing this by counting the number of tabs at the beginning of the line, but that's a pretty hacky approach imho. Any hints?

Cheers
Robert
