I'm trying to use the AST to manipulate some Java code.
If I try to manipulate a Javadoc tag, required whitespace is being
stripped. For example, if I have a Javadoc tag
@author Mike Yawn
and change the TextElement to Bob Smith, what gets rewritten is
@authorBob Smith
Same behavior is seen on the @version tag, which is the only other one
I've tried this on.
If I try to insert extra leading whitespace, it just gets stripped.
If I try to delete the TextElement altogether, and replace it with a new
one (rather than just do .setText), it still has the same problem.
Am I missing something, or is this a bug?
Code that is failing (this is inside visit(Javadoc node) )
if (tag.getTagName().equals("@author")) {
//((TextElement)tag.fragments().get(0)).setText(m_info.getDe veloper());
for (int i=0; i< tag.fragments().size(); i++) {
ASTNode n = (ASTNode) tag.fragments().get(i);
//System.out.println("Removing Fragment:" + n + ":");
tag.fragments().remove(i);
}
TextElement value = ast.newTextElement();
value.setText(m_info.getDeveloper());
//System.out.println("Adding Fragment:" + value + ":");
tag.fragments().add(value);
}
I can do this with the 'old' and 'new' tag values identical, and that
display the same if I uncomment the printlns, yet the formatting of the
element changes and the separation between tag name and tag value is lost.
I guess my next test will be to delete the tag entirely, and create a
new tag, but it doesn't seem like that should be necessary.

Enter a bug report against JDT/Core with steps to reproduce and as many
details as possible.
