Ecore model generator - use tab or white spaces for indentation [message #1691646] Wed, 08 April 2015 17:10 Go to next message

We have a strange behavior, in some workspaces the generated code uses tabs for indentation, in other workspaces it uses white spaces.
We are using the codegen libraries from Eclipse Luna 4.4.1.

Where is this configured? Does it reuse some setting from the Eclipse IDE? Or can I force to use always the same setting when generating the code from the IDE?

I already switched between different formatters in the Eclipse preferences (with tabs only and spaces only) and it has no effect.

IIRC., the generator picks up project-specific formatter and cleanup settings (if available). That can lead to different
results in different projects.

You're right, it seems it uses the formatter settings event if they are not set at the project level (workspace level). My problem was that it was not considering the changes, it seems Eclipse needs to be restarted in order to ensure it refreshes the settings.

It seems the cleanup settings are not used, since I have enabled the "remove unused imports" option and the generated code still have unused imports (this is due to a limitation in our generator templates).

Have you enabled "Source Cleanup" in your GenModel?

No, I haven't. Good hint!
Thanks!
