I have seen some project use something like this [1] ... at least IntelliJ understands it out of the box.
It's an IDE independent format for defining settings like indentation, end of line settings and so on. Chris [1]: http://editorconfig.org/ EditorConfig<http://editorconfig.org/> editorconfig.org EditorConfig is a file format and collection of text editor plugins for maintaining consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs. ________________________________ Von: Christofer Dutz <christofer.d...@c-ware.de> Gesendet: Donnerstag, 16.

Hi, I am currently having a look at the SonarQube findings, since activating the Xml analysis the number of problems did jump up by about 1,1k most of them being related to my Xml indention of 4 spaces instead of 2. Now it would be one option to disable checks like this, but sometimes they are good to have since some times it reveals problems you just don't seem to be able to see. The other option would be to have code style checked. Now I started thinking that it might be good to setup my IntelliJ to format everything correctly and to make sure code I write follows the rules. But I was unable to find a document like this. Do we have one? If not, how about creating one and voting on it and make it official. Chris
