Is it possible for me to use Eclipse to mass-reformat a bunch of C++ files (on the order of a few thousands), without actually having to open every single one in the IDE?
Update:
A couple people have now posted solutions for the Java IDE, but this does not seem to work for the C++ IDE because there is no “Source” submenu in Project Explorer. 🙁
This feature will be arriving in the next version of CDT (due in June 2011), CDT 8 in Eclipse 3.7. You can try it now using a milestone build of the platform + cdt: http://eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/indigo/m6
The bug where this feature was added is here:
