Re-Ordering of Source code
yel...@my-deja.com
will allow the original method order in imported
source to be preserved ?
My colleagues are constantly giving me grief
about re-ordering their source when I make minor
changes in VA (they use J Builder or Cafe or
EMACS)
The other things I want to know are as follows:
1. will vaj2cvs work (we use CVS as our
repository)?
2. Has anyone tried the Weblogic integration kit?
3. Are the import export problems CR/LF related ?
I will be doing a lot of import/export to CVS.
4. Can tabs be converted to spaces ? This is
another point that gets me in trouble with my
workmates.

to prevent reordering of the methods -- or you can even
specify very fine grine how you want your methods to
be exported.

VAJ 3.5's Source View tab in the class browser allows you to reorder
methods. VAJ will remember the order that you specify.

It looks to me like they're formatter-related. It seems that lots of
folks are using VA/Assist, and it formats their code (using VAJ's own
formatter) on import. The formatter is clearly broken.

VAJ 3.5 has the option to convert tabs to spaces or use tabs. It seems
to work OK.

Yes, the formatter appears to have some problems in 3.5. As far as VA Assist
is concerned, however, the "format on import" option is not turned on by
default, so I don't know how many folks use it. We have run numerous tests
of formatting on import and have never encountered a problem ourselves.

How does this work on import ? Is the order of the original source file
remembered ?

Yes (I think). It seems to be this which is causing horrible corruptions
in the Source View pane and export of classes that were originally imported
into VAj. Classes started from scratch in VAj don't seem to have the same
Source View/export troubles.

Right. I have since discovered that classes imported in VAJ 3.5 without VA
Assist are doomed to eternal munging. Classes created from scratch in VAJ do
not seem to have this plague. Is it possible that VAJ, itself, runs the
formatter on imported code?
