Description Denis Pesotsky 2011-01-21 10:36:46 UTC
Version:           unspecified

There are 3 ways to indent «*» in pointers and «&» in references:
int* a — Stroustrup style
int *a — K&R style
int * a — neutral guys style

astyle has «--align-pointer» option to handle this, it can be equal to type/middle/name.

KDevelop currently don't support this option in indentation/reformatting, but alligns to type on auto-completion (!) and that suxx. In most Qt and KDE sources, it's alligned to name. Personally I prefer alligning to name too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Reformat following code:

Class& func(const QPoint &a)
{
    int *a;
    int * b;
    int* c;
    return *this;
}

Actual Results:  
Class& func(const QPoint &a)
{
    int *a;
    int * b;
    int* c;
    return *this;
}

Expected Results:  
It don't change pointers and references

Class &func(const QPoint &a)
{
    int *a;
    int *b;
    int *c;
    return *this;
}

Dam I mistaken. Fixed:

Class& func(const QPoint &a)
{
    int *a;
    int * b;
    int* c;
    return *this;
}

Expected Results:  
Class &func(const QPoint &a)
{
    int *a;
    int *b;
    int *c;
    return *this;
}
