c++ header generation

[Dan]

Hi all,

Is there anyway to prevent code generation placing an extra blank line between class members ?

I've looked in the edit generation settings panel and cannot see any setting.

Maybe its something to do with the ${definition} in c++[1] ?

For example I get this:

Code: Select all

 private:
    int m_code;

    int m_value;

    int m_called;

    Test2 m_test2;

But want this:

Code: Select all

 private:
    int m_code;
    int m_value;
    int m_called;
    Test2 m_test2;

Thanks.

Hello,

The code generation replaces the keywords by their values and writes the other characters unchanged.

If you edit your attributes/relations/operations and look at their definition in the C++ tab you will see that their C++ declarations ends by a line break, so the code generation produces that line break, then generates a final line break to end the declaration => you have a blank line after each member declaration. To remove the blank line just remove the line break at the end of the declarations, and of course remove it also into the default attribute/relation/operation declarations in the generation setting to have that behavior for the future members.

I put that extra line break in the default declarations because a priori a member is commented and is more readable to have that extra blank line between the blocks comment+declaration

I removed all extra lines in any of the generation settings panel but there was still a line.

New attributes do not have the extra line any more.

But I also had to remove extra lines in the attribute generation panel - removed these and now ok.

Thanks.

The generation settings give the default definition for the element you will create.

When you modify the generation settings the already existing elements are unchanged, hopefully, else you will have to go on all of them to check/modify their definitions

Anyway you may want to adapt the definition of the already existing elements to follow your new generation rules, or for any other reasons, to help I made the "plug-out" global change

Good grief - don't throw more stuff at me to look at ...
