Indentation

[Andre Louw-2]

Hi all,

I need some help. We all have our specific idiosyncrasies, one of mine is
that I'm hooked on
my indentation and general appearance of my source files.
Unfortunately I'm running into trouble when checking in or out from
QuantLib's CVS.
Any file that I worked on that somebody else worked on as well I get
conflicts, 99% of the time because of
indentation. Unfortunately this works vice-versa as well.
I haven't really checked but I'm pretty sure there must be some automated
way of getting this to work.
IOW get a common .indent.pro on the CVS server, which all files are
converted to when checked in,
and a personal .indent.pro which is used when checking out.

Luigi,

I used the indent.pro file you sent me a while ago but I've noticed the
indent
option --braces-on-struct-decl-line tends to break c++ files!!!!

Any body out there with some experience in this line?

Andre

It seems to be a widespread disease here :)

Andre,
        I just checked a fe CVS resources on line. It is possible to
run a program upon commit and/or update: however, the programs are
run only after the cvs operation succesfully terminates---one can't
pipe the cvs incoming/outgoing data through them :(

Ouch. This is a strange one: shuffling around whitespace shouldn't
break C++ code...  What exactly happens to the source?

It's been probably my fault. Next time I will be more careful.

To use 2 different .indent.pro on the CVS side and the developer side
wouldn't mark all files as modified?

This said if we settle on one .indent.pro and automate the CVS I would go
for it
