This thread was, once again, moved to JDT (hopes that is the right place this time) at: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/692967/#msg_692967

Hail community!

I'm moving this thread from newcomers forums, as no one gave attention to it there.
Sorry if this isn't the place (again).

I think that my issue is a (rather simple) bug.
When formating multiple fields with "align fields in columns" checked and with comments at the end of the line, depending on the number of characters in that line, the comment come one tab back.

Assume the following code:
public String ONE = "1"; // a
public String TWO = "22"; // b
public String THREE = "333"; // c
public String FOUR = "4444"; // d

When applying formatting, this is what I expect as formated output:
	public String	ONE	= "1";		// a
	public String	TWO	= "22";		// b
	public String	THREE	= "333";	// c
	public String	FOUR	= "4444";	// d

But this is the formated output that I receive:
	public String	ONE	= "1";		// a
	public String	TWO	= "22";	// b
	public String	THREE	= "333";	// c
	public String	FOUR	= "4444";	// d


if you increase or decrease in one the number of characters in the value part (the string itself) the formatting works like expected.
	public String	TWO	= "2";		// b
	public String	TWO	= "22";	// b
	public String	TWO	= "222";	// b



Some one knows if this is a bug or a problem with my setup?

Hi,

i guess this is targeting the Java Formatter. For questions on the Java Delevopment Tools (JDT) please use the corresponding forum/newsgroup: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/f/13/.
This forum is for questions on the Modeling Framework Xtext.

Hi Nemo,

I'm forwarding your question to the JDT newsgroup which should be a
better match.

Regards,
Sebastian
