I’m a big fan of the automated code formation (STRG + SHIFT + F) from eclipse. It makes your code so much more readable. However, now that I’m comenting my code, I’m getting the problem with Hyperlinks. Code formation adds line breaks anywhere in your code, so if you have e.g. a very long hyperlink it breaks into multiple lines and makes it unresolvable 🙁
Is there a way that eclipse doesn’t format specific comment parts like Hyperlinks?
Regards,
Stefan
I don’t think there is any way from setting that up in the menu. The workaround is to disable block or line comment formatting in the formatter profile:
Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Code Style -> Formatter -> Edit -> tab Comments
As pointed out by Kheldar, you can always customise/extend the Java Codeformatter using the extension point, but that’s probably not a one hour job for someone unfamiliar with the JDT.
Please indicate, if you need any assistance coding an extension for the formatter.
