Обсуждение: Another pgindent gripe
Hi, I have another gripe regarding pgindent. Why does it change indenting of function declarations? An example is at the end. I think it may be thinking that declarations should be aligned using 8-spaces tabs. Can this be corrected? It annoyed me just now, because I'm adjusting my vacuum patch and lots of conflicts appeared because it chose to change the spacing. A pointless change for an automatic tool to make, if I must add, and one that adds gratuituous work for the human wanting to do some real work.

What it's doing is indenting the additional lines in the same way as
they'd be indented in the function definition, that is
static void foo(int p1, int p2);
static void
foo(int p1, int p2)
{ ...
I've always thought this was pretty stupid, too --- I think it'd look
nicer as
static void foo(int p1, int p2);
But I dunno whether it is easily fixable. It's always done that AFAIR.

On a related note, most of these changes are completely bogus: http://developer.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_exec.c.diff?r1=1.152;r2=1.153 -Neil
Where someone is doing real work and pgindent creates so many cosmetic changes for the current CVS repository, would it be feasible to first commit a "whitespace only" noop revision, so that real changes can be easily identified. I have seen this approach work well for others. -Kevin >>> Neil Conway <neilc@samurai.com> >>> On Mon, 2005-07-11 at 09:19 -0300, Alvaro Herrera wrote: > I have another gripe regarding pgindent.

Why did it insert spaces after the stars in all those function declarations? That's certainly not in conformance with project style ... and I don't see it having happened elsewhere. Seems like pgindent has suffered some significant regressions since the 8.0 run. I thought it had not been changed much at all, but evidently that's wrong. regards, tom lane
Pgindent adds spaces after the stars if it doesn't recognize the thing before the star as a typedef... Could it be that somehow the list of typedefs included in pgindent got corrupted? > -----Original Message----- > From: pgsql-hackers-owner@postgresql.org [mailto:pgsql-hackers- > owner@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of Tom Lane > Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 8:19 AM > To: Neil Conway > Cc: Bruce Momjian; Hackers > Subject: Re: [HACKERS] Another pgindent gripe > > Neil Conway <neilc@samurai.com> writes: > > On a related note, most of these changes are completely bogus: > > > > http://developer.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_e xe > c.c.diff?r1=1.152;r2=1.153 > > Oy vey!

FYI, I am looking into all the reports of pgindent failures and will have those fixed and a sample re-run diff posted in a few days. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck McDevitt wrote: > Pgindent adds spaces after the stars if it doesn't recognize the thing > before the star as a typedef...
