I am trying to make the source formatter in stm32cubeide code editor to skip some parts of my code. Normally it just works fine but in some cases I want to have it differently for readability.
Take the example below, a list of unsigned char values taking 3 positions aligned to the right. (I didn't want to show all 3000 values, so I deleted many lines)
// clang-format off
const uint8_t samples[3000] = { 127, 127, 128, 128, 128, 128, 129, 129, 129, 129, 130, 130, 130, 130, 131
, 103, 103, 103, 102, 102, 102, 102, 101, 101, 101, 100, 100, 100, 100, 99
, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9
};
// clang-format on
When I press ctrl-shift-F or when I change anything in the configuration, the source is reformatted and the clang-format line is disregarded. The source formatting is changed to:
// clang-format off
const uint8_t samples[3000] = {
127, 127, 128, 128, 128, 128, 129, 129, 129, 129, 130, 130, 130, 130, 131, 131, 131, 132, 132, 132, 132, 133,
13, 13, 13, 13, 13, 13, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 10, 10, 10, 10,
7, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4,
124, 125, 125, 125, 125, 126, 126, 126, 126, 127 };
// clang-format on
Is there any way in Stm32Cube to disable formatting for only a small section of the code?
Does Cube use another command than clang-format?
I found it in:
Window > Preferences > C/C++ > Code Style > Formatter > "active profile" > Edit > Off/On Tags
set checkbox "Enable Off/On tags"
Off tag: @formatter:off
On tag: @formatter:on
