Eclipse 3.8 PDT Formatting [message #1082517]

When formatting a page (ctrl-shift-f) the result is a format nothing as it was before. Extra lines are added, where I once had the code lined up on the equal signs is now gone. I am aware of the Preferences->PHP->Code Style->Formatter and created a new profile and tried to adjust. However, the format is just not right.... What happened?

Can I remove or go to an older format style? If so can some one recommend how to install (Import) a new format style?

Thanks in advance,

About the case which you probably described in Bug 410249 Code Formatter conflicting with comments helpers of Code Assist,

Quote:

/**
* Test comment blah, blah, blah
*@param
*@param
*/

Ctrl/shift-f

/**
* Test comment blah, blah, blah
*
*@param
*
*@param
*
*/

Ctrl/shift-f (Again)

/**
* Test comment blah, blah, blah
*
*
*@param
*
*
*@param
*
*
*/

I can nearly reproduce this behaviour, however, this is caused by invalid document. @param requires a name.
/**
* Test comment blah, blah, blah
*@param
*@param
*/
This must be
/**
* Test comment blah, blah, blah
*@param name type description
*@param name
*/

If you dislike the formatter, remove org.eclipse.php.formatter.* in eclipse/plugins folder at your own risk.

(though this is off-topic, probably you are using Zend Eclipse PDT, I don't support it)
