Hi,

I only found a very old thread about this issue: if I want to automatically get the right indentation while writing code, for example after a "{ CR", is there any support in Xtext? I mean, do I have to reformat the whole file?

The problem is that the code after the one I'm writing is probably not syntactically correct (in the example a "}" is missing), so it's not certain that the formatter will be able to do a good job. BTW, can just a chunk of code be reformatted?

best regards,
Vlad

Hi,

did you have a look at auto edit (org.eclipse.xtext.ui.editor.autoedit.DefaultAutoEditStrategyProvider)
?

Doh! Thanks Christian,

I was so in to my other problem with the formatter that I only searched the 'net, not the code...

regards,
Vlad
