Hello,
I'm developing with Xtext and I must say, I really like it. But I have a little problem with the formatter. I extended the AbstractDeclarativeFormatter and everything works great except one "little" thing:
In my grammar I have defined some rules for code blocks that look like this:
VARIABLES
{
TYPE_X short_name "value"
TYPE_Y very__long__name "value"
...
}
OBJECT
{
ATT_LENGTH "value"
ATT_DESCRIPTION "value"
}
What I want to implement in the formatter is that the "value" parts in the VARIABLE block will be aligned in one column (like the "value" parts in the OBJECT blocks). For the "value" parts in the OBJECT blocks it works with inserting a default amount of spaces through myFormattingConfig.setSpace(...).before(...);
After formatting it should look this way:
{
TYPE_X short_name "value"
TYPE_Y very__long__name "value"
...
}
(I know, I try to implement relly bad "elastic tabstops" but that would be enough for my purposes.)
Thanks in advance!
