Question

With the default settings, the Delphi 2010 code formatter folds anonymous methods on one line.

Is there anyone who has found settings to circumvent this?

Original code:

procedure TUnit.AppendFinalization(const StringBuilder: TStringBuilder);
begin
  AppendMemberResults(StringBuilder,
    function(Member: TGeneratableInUnit): IStringListWrapper
    begin
      Result := Member.FinalizationText;
    end
  );
end;

procedure TUnit.AppendMemberResults(const StringBuilder: TStringBuilder; const GetMemberText: TFunc<TGeneratableInUnit, IStringListWrapper>);

Formatted code:

procedure TUnit.AppendFinalization(const StringBuilder: TStringBuilder);
begin
  AppendMemberResults(StringBuilder, function(Member: TGeneratableInUnit): IStringListWrapper begin Result := Member.FinalizationText; end);
end;

procedure TUnit.AppendMemberResults(const StringBuilder: TStringBuilder; const GetMemberText: TFunc<TGeneratableInUnit, IStringListWrapper>);

As you can see, the anonymous method is being formatted to one line.

I feel I’m missing some kind of setting here.
