In the preferences page, the code formatters displays "NONE" and there are
no items in the dropdown list.
What's wrong?

Thanks~

You obviously have no formatters installed, so you can't use any.
Install a formatter, such as Simple Indent, and it will appear on the list.

Go to http://eclipse.org/cdt
Then scroll down and click on "CDT Community Webpage"
and follow the instructions under "GNU Indent, formatter"

I do have something called "indent" installed on my debian linux, and I
have the same problem : no "GNU indent" proposed in the format préférences.
