Title: C# code generation - starting scope
Post by: mkinnaird on July 05, 2005, 11:26:09 am

I am currently evaluating EA for our company as a standard UML Modeling tool and source code generator.  Everything is looking postive for this product, but I had a question regarding the source code generation:

It appears when I generate the source code, it insists on putting the starting scope of the method, class, namespace (ie the open curly brace) on the same line with the class/method/namespace definition.  

Our coding standards encourage the curly brace to start on the next line (so the closing matches with the starting).

Any way I can tell the generator to put the curly brace on the NEXT line??

Thanks in advance!
Michael.

There is no option for this, but the generation is fully customisable.  You make it generate the braces on a new line by making the following changes in the code templates.

If you remove the line %PI=" "% from the namespace and class templates.  Then the line %PI=""% from the operation template.

These mean that the default PI (a newline) is used between lines of the template.
