uncrustify/mystyle.cfg Can I add functions to Uncrustify

MrUmunhum · 03-30-2017, 07:37 PM

Hi group,
I need a way to add function to Uncrustify. Specifically, I wish to make him change "if (" to "if( " as well as while, for, etc. I would also like to make the closing brace on the last line of a group, not on a newline.
The config file for Uncrustify is daunting.

I know this is not an accepted style but it is what I need to be able to read my code. I AM DYSLEXIC! Trolls need not reply!

Thanks for your time and your replies.

You might try this config file instead of the default: https://github.com/uncrustify/uncrus...cs/ben.cfg.txt

For example, to remove the space in "if (" change "force" on line 61 to "remove":

Code:

sp_before_sparen		= remove		# "if (" vs "if("

Thanks for your post bit iy fails here:

Code:

uncrustify --version
uncrustify 0.64.517-g91f2ff0

uncrustify -c ben.cfg.txt -o test.unc
ben.cfg.txt:98 Unknown symbol 'align_var_def_star'

Then hangs, needed C-c to recover.

So I found a config file that gives me the Lisp style I want except for one little thing, I want this:

Code:

  if( ( Term = initscr() ) == NULL)  {
     fprintf( stderr, "Initscr error initializing ncurses.\n" );
     exit( EXIT_FAILURE );  }

and I get this:

Code:

  if( ( Term = initscr() ) == NULL)  {
      fprintf( stderr, "Initscr error initializing ncurses.\n" );
      exit( EXIT_FAILURE );
      }

Anyone know the magic word I need to change?
