Version: 3.3.4 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux After creating new project, reformat source feature is disabled. How to reproduce: 1) Launch kdevelop 2) Project->New Project. Choose C++ as language and select "simple hello world program". Enter application name and press next button until project will not be opened. 3) After opening this project Edit->Reformat Source is disabled. To enable it I must reopen project or source file. The correspond Debian bug entry: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=330028
Right, this happens. The reason is that the file is opened by the wizard, before the project is opened and the reformatting (astyle) plugin loaded. The reformatting plugin recognizes files by extension and takes the decision to enable the reformatting action when a file is opened. Since the first file is already open, the decision is never made. Workaround: Switch to a different file and back again, once, after opening a project.
Fixed in 3.4 branch, revision 575895.
