Is there an option to re-indent all the source code in a project?

Mike,

I'd say NO. There is no possibility.

There are tools available that analyze ASCII files containing source code, 
but I'm yet to find a tool suiting my needs.

For the time being my advice is: indent properly while coding and don't use 
Tab.

what about CLICK for Xbase++ ?
Olaf had start a Thread in public.xbase++.generic on 26. Juni 2007.

i did use it and found some Problem, which i have posted, but it is Source
Code (Cl*pper / Xbase++) so we shoud be able to enhance missing
Functions or disable Functions which we do not want.

i did a small enhancement while i miss DBF and Index Cross Reference.
i did also include a [Macrolist] Section in CLICK.INI to strip real DBF
Name from NET_USE(myDBF). i also found a Way to identify NTX
Index belong to a DBF ... with CDX i still working ...

so if someone like i will upload it into Olafs CLICK Thread.

If you need to review unknown PRG code, CLICK 'might' help to enhance 
readability.

If you want to FORMAT YOUR OUN source code, why didn't you write it readable 
in the first place?

My point is: CLICK is only good to format foreign code. It does not relieve 
you to write proper and readable source code.

That is: if you need CLICK to re-format YOUR source code, you are well 
advised to THINK how to write/format proper source code.

i do this exessive , but CLICK can do much more than only
reformatiing your Source e.g. Cross Reference of all you
Function/Procedure/Class/Methode. it can also include a
Header to every Function so you can allways "see" which
Modul are calling that Function.

while my Editor ( ETP ) do not know Keyword handling,
i also use it to expand  and convert into UPPER() for nice
looking so i have less to type ( shift only for "" )

i do not need CLICK, like other Programm i wrote, but it make
live much more easy AND it is a second Controll for me to test
if my Code coud be not missunderstood by Xbase++ compiler.

i woud like to see CLICK into VX to create Cross Reference.
i woud be great if XV coud create a Cross Reference from
all Variable in a Project.

you shoud try CLICK for Xbase++, it is a real good work
from Phil Barnett and Olafs modification.

Is that "Jimmy Yiu". If so "Hi again"  (we have met after my TBrowse 
session I held during the 1994 Clipper DevCon in Cologne).

Ok, I'll give it a try

yes im ... was a very nice Time each CA DevCon in Cologne.

1994 ... hm ... was it that year we made a boot tour on Rhein
or did we spend the time in a big Disco where some people from
CA Team dance on the Table ? (i did remember Sabo what was
very funny). i think we got a Video on CD after DevCon 1994 ...

Hi Hannes,

Actually, I created a color source code printing system that has an 
option to reindent using either 3 spaces or tab characters.  It works 
pretty well but I haven't tried to make it work without printing.  I use 
it fairly often, but I really don't want to post it because the last 
time I did there was some nasty comments about "Why would you do 
something so stupid?"

Sorry........

Joe,

plese see my response to AUGE_OHR

Regarding your point: I'm pretty reluctant about "SELF CONTAINED 
SOLUTIONS".

I'm sure that you can work with YOUR solution pretty well, but I did not see 
it.

It's really pretty easy to write in Xbase++.

The key is to set up the rules, and read the source in using MemoRead().
Then, analyze line by line and keep a running count (add and subtract 
according to the rules you define) of the tab needs.  Just add that 
number of tabs to the beginning of the trimmed lines and build a new 
string to eventually write back to the source file using MemoWrit().

If you read the directory of the source files and build an array of the 
file names, they can be done in sequence so that the entire project is 
reformatted.
