Bug ID: 415913
Summary: KDevelop code formatter generates incorrect formatting
with kdev_format_source
Product: kdevelop
Version: 5.4.5
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Astyle
Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: scott.dea...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Code formatting not working correctly when using source formatter "KDevelop:
kdev_format_source" with uncrustify.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Generate uncrustify config file: uncrustify --update-config > myconfig.cfg
2. Open KDevelop
3. Navigate to Settings > Configure KDevelop > Source Formatter.
4. For the "Language" dropdown, select "C++".
5. For the "Formatter" dropdown, select "Custom Script Formatter".
6. In the "Style" listbox, select "KDevelop: kdev_format_source".
7. Click on the "OK" button.
8. Create "format_source" file in the project's root directory.
9. In the "format_source" file, add: */*.cpp: uncrustify -c myconfig.cfg
--no-backup $TMPFILE
10. In KDevelop, open a .cpp file that includes a function like:
void test(int someParam1, int someParam2){
std::cout<<"This is a test..."<<std::endl;
}
11. Right-click in the editor, and select "Reformat Source".
OBSERVED RESULT
void test(int someParam1, int someParam2)
{
std::cout<<"This is a test..."<<std::endl;
}
EXPECTED RESULT
void test(int someParam1, int someParam2)
{
std::cout<<"This is a test..."<<std::endl;
}
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.65.0
Qt Version: 5.14.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
uncrustify works as expected if the same command in "format_source" is executed
directly from a terminal:
uncrustify -c myconfig.cfg --no-backup test.cpp
A workaround:
1. Create an external script.
2. For the "command", use: uncrustify -c myconfig.cfg -f %f
3. For "Output", select "Replace contents of current file"
4. Untick the "Show Output" checkbox.
5. Set a keyboard shortcut for the external script.
