Subject: [Vijava-devel] Eclipse Formatter for VIJava

Hi all,

Not sure how many people are using Eclipse, but was thinking that it might be worth having a common formatter to maintain consistency. I've attached a draft incorporating a couple of recommendations. I'm open to suggestion, but can imagine everyone has different thoughts on the "right" way to format code, so we should probably try to avoid religious discussion on the subject ;-)

This would save us from the annoyance of accidentally formatting an entire file differently when making a simple change. However, there is potential for a lot of "churn" initially with code not formatted in this way. Any recommendations for best practices in this regard?

Cheers,
Tom
