Code-Formatting

The clang-format tool works for multiple programming languages, not just C or C++. It supports: C C++ Objective-C Objective-C++ JavaScript Java C# Protobuf TableGen, etc. Style 1: Using Stroustrup Brace Style Uses Stroustrup-style braces (else on a new line). Short if statements are allowed on a single line. Template declarations always break. { "AccessModifierOffset": -4, "AllowShortIfStatementsOnASingleLine": true, "AlwaysBreakTemplateDeclarations": true, "Standard": "C++11", "BreakBeforeBraces": "Stroustrup", "ColumnLimit": 0 } Style 2: Custom Style Based on LLVM style but customized. else goes on a new line. Braces after functions and control statements are on the same line. Compact and clean layout. { "Language": "Cpp", "BasedOnStyle": "LLVM", "BreakBeforeBraces": "Custom", "BraceWrapping": { "AfterFunction": false, "AfterControlStatement": false, "BeforeElse": true }, "AllowShortIfStatementsOnASingleLine": true, "ColumnLimit": 0, "Standard": "C++11" } Style 3: Same as Style 2 but with 4-space indentation and no tabs Useful to ensure consistent formatting across editors and systems. { "Language": "Cpp", "BasedOnStyle": "LLVM", "BreakBeforeBraces": "Custom", "BraceWrapping": { "AfterFunction": false, "AfterControlStatement": false, "BeforeElse": true }, "AllowShortIfStatementsOnASingleLine": true, "ColumnLimit": 0, "Standard": "C++11", "IndentWidth": 4, "TabWidth": 4, "UseTab": "Never" } ✅ Style 4: Same as Style 3 but keeps else on the same line (Your Favorite - Minimal Braces) If you prefer } else format instead of }\nelse. { "Language": "Cpp", "BasedOnStyle": "LLVM", "BreakBeforeBraces": "Custom", "BraceWrapping": { "AfterFunction": false, "AfterControlStatement": false, "BeforeElse": false }, "AllowShortIfStatementsOnASingleLine": true, "ColumnLimit": 0, "Standard": "C++11", "IndentWidth": 4, "TabWidth": 4, "UseTab": "Never" }
