#165 pretty printer removes comment from empty constructor

Status: open

Owner: Mike Atkinson

Labels: Pretty Printer (87)

Priority: 5

Updated: 2004-06-06

Created: 2004-06-06

Private: No

consider the following class:

public class JRRemoveConstructorCommentBug
{
private JRRemoveConstructorCommentBug() {
// do nothing
}

public static void doNothing() {
// do nothing
}
}

using the settings from my previous bug 967541 (pretty printer generates @param/@throws despite *.tags=""), the pretty printer turns this into:

public class JRRemoveConstructorCommentBug
{
private JRRemoveConstructorCommentBug() { }

public static void doNothing() {
// do nothing
}
}

apparently, the "// do nothing" has been removed from the constructor, while it has been preserved at the method doNothing().

(i think this is independant from pretty.settings.)
