Best Eclipse Code Formatters?
The default Eclipse formatter formats my Java code in a really funny way.
For example: hello.show().x().y() would oddly be formatted as x() and .y(), and be placed on a separate line.
Are there any other basic formatters that can do a better job?
Examples and links are very welcome.
Answer
I would highly recommend the google's style guide, it's a collection of coding style guide for commonly used programming languages.
The eclipse configurable Java guide can be found here. Installing the guide is quite simple, Save the style xml to a file and import it using the following dialogue box:
Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Code Style -> Formatter
Finally select the active profile as GoogleStyle.
