wrapping logical operators [message #828357]

Is there a way for me to configure my code style, so that Eclipse does not place the && on the next line?

This is what it's doing:

if ((tkcmdpr_msg[next_source].unit != tkcmdpr_unit_id)
&& (tkcmdpr_msg[next_source].unit != TKCMDPR_FIXED_UNIT_ID)) {
ecode = TKCMDPR_INVALID_UNIT_ID_ERR;
}

Where this is what I want:

if ((tkcmdpr_msg[next_source].unit != tkcmdpr_unit_id) &&
(tkcmdpr_msg[next_source].unit != TKCMDPR_FIXED_UNIT_ID)){
ecode = TKCMDPR_INVALID_UNIT_ID_ERR;
}

Honestly, I've been working for years in embedded C code now, and I don't think I've ever seen someone prefer to put the && on the next line. Is this really so common that it should be the default code style? At any rate, I'd love to just be able to change it.

I am using this version if the info is helpful:
Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools
Version: 8.0.0.201106081058
Build id: 201106081058

Thanks,
Bobby

Bumping this up.

Does anyone see how to change this behavior? It's preventing me from cleaning up some code that really needs cleaning up.

Honestly...I would like to know if anyone actually does like their operators on the next line...is there *anybody* who does it this way?

There is an open bugzilla request about this feature https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=360107

Hello!

I think that I'm actually going to give a try this weekend, at getting the CDT project and figuring out how to fix this bug myself.

I must admit that I'm going to have a learning curve here. If I manage to get the code and build it this weekend I'll be happy. I design circuit boards and write embedded software for a living so I'm not a total idiot. I've never built a Windows program of considerable size, however: simple C# apps, python scripts...that's the extent of my experience in Windows...I don't even know Java.

It looks like this link is the best place to start if I really want to do this in this link: wiki.eclipse.org/Getting_started_with_CDT_development

Please let me know if I'm being unrealistic thinking that I might be able to add this formatting option myself.

Thanks,
Bobby
