Subject: Suggestion: Code Editor: Auto Align parameters [Print This Page]

Author: dbbanjo Time: 2013-4-23 22:31 Subject: Suggestion: Code Editor: Auto Align parameters

Howdy,

  Could an option be added which would provide the ability
to auto-align a parameter list according to the parameter type?

  Here is a before and after example:

   Before:
            procedure tFormCustomDrawCell(Sender: TObject; ACanvas: TCanvas; ARect: TRect;  ANode: TdxTreeListNode;
                                                         AColumn: TdxTreeListColumn; ASelected, AFocused, ANewItemRow: Boolean;
                                                         Var AText: String; Var AColor: TColor; AFont: TFont; Var AAlignment: TAlignment;
                                                         Var ADone: Boolean);

   After:
            procedure tFormCustomDrawCell(Sender: TObject;
                                                         ACanvas: TCanvas;
                                                         ARect: TRect;  ANode: TdxTreeListNode;
                                                         AColumn: TdxTreeListColumn;
                                                         ASelected, AFocused, ANewItemRow: Boolean;
                                                         Var AText: String;
                                                         Var AColor: TColor;
                                                         AFont: TFont;
                                                         Var AAlignment: TAlignment;
                                                         Var ADone: Boolean);

  Note: If the above ability is already present? Please let me know where this
option is located ...

                  Thanks,

                        DbBanjo (Marc Bolen)

It's a part of code formatting, but our code formatting feature is only for testing, not published.

It also can be done by a Pascal Script.

I would even prefer following output (which is even not possible with the RAD code formatter):

After:

procedure tFormCustomDrawCell(Sender:             TObject;
                                          ACanvas:          TCanvas;
                                          ARect:             TRect;
                                          ANode:             TdxTreeListNode;
                                          AColumn:          TdxTreeListColumn;
                                          ASelected, AFocused, ANewItemRow: Boolean;
                                          Var AText:          String;
                                          Var AColor:          TColor;
                                          AFont:                TFont;
                                          Var AAlignment: TAlignment;
                                          Var ADone:          Boolean);

In C++ this would look like:

int       MyForm::TFormCustomDrawCell(TObject *    Sender,
                                                      TCanvas *       ACanvas,
                                                      TRect  &       ARect,
                                                      ...
                                                      bool &          Done)
{
}
