Artistic Style 1.19

A Free, Fast and Small Automatic Formatter
for C, C++, C#, and Java Source Code

Artistic Style is a source code indenter, source code formatter, and source code beautifier for the C, C++, C# and Java programming languages.

When indenting source code, we as programmers have a tendency to use both spaces and tab characters to create the wanted indentation. Moreover, some editors by default insert spaces instead of tabs when pressing the tab key, and other editors (Emacs for example) have the ability to "pretty up" lines by automatically setting up the white space before the code on the line, possibly inserting spaces in a code that up to now used only tabs for indentation.

Since the NUMBER of space characters showed on screen for each tab character in the source code changes between editors (unless the user sets up the number to his liking...), one of the standard problems programmers are facing when moving from one editor to another is that code containing both spaces and tabs that was up to now perfectly indented, suddenly becomes a mess to look at when changing to another editor. Even if you as a programmer take care to ONLY use spaces or tabs, looking at other people's source code can still be problematic.

To address this problem, Artistic Style was created - a filter written in C++ that automatically re-indents and re-formats C / C++ / C# / Java source files. It can be used from a command line, or it can be incorporated as classes in another C++ program.

Artistic Style may be used and distributed under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

Usage

Artistic style is a console program that receives information from the command line. The format of the command line is:

astyle [options]  SourceFile1.cpp  SourceFile2.cpp  SourceFile3.cpp [ . . . ]

Or to save the file with a different name:

astyle [options] < OriginalSourceFile > BeautifiedSourceFile

The < and > characters are used to redirect the files into standard input and out of standard output - don't forget them!

With the first option, the newly indented file retains the original file name , while a copy of the original file is created with a .orig appended to the original file name. (This can be set to a different string by the option --suffix=, or suppressed altogether by the options -n or --suffix=none). Thus, after indenting SourceFile1.cpp as above, the indented result will be named SourceFile1.cpp, while the original pre-indented file will be renamed to SourceFile1.cpp.orig .

With the second option, the file is saved with a different name. Therefore a copy is not created.

Wildcards (such as "*.cpp"), can be used if the project is compiled to include them. See the above Installation Information for instructions.

Options

Not specifying any option will result in C/C++ style indentation, with a default of 4 spaces per indent, and NO formatting.

Options may be written in two different ways:

• Long options:
  These options start with '--', and must be written one at a time.
  (Example: '--brackets=attach --pad --indent=spaces=4)
• Short Options:
  These options start with a single '-', and may be concatenated together.
  (Example: '-bps4' is the same as writing '-b -p -s4'.)

A default options file may be used to set your favorite source style.

• The command line options have precedence. If there is a conflict between a command line option and an option in the default options file, the command line option will be used.
• Artistic Style looks for this file in the following locations (in order):
  1. the file indicated by the --options= command line option;
  2. the file indicated by the environment variable ARTISTIC_STYLE_OPTIONS (if it exists);
  3. the file named .astylerc in the directory pointed to by the HOME environment variable (e.g. "$HOME/.astylerc" on Linux);
  4. the file named astylerc in the directory pointed to by the USERPROFILE environment variable (e.g. "%USERPROFILE%\astylerc" on Windows).
• This option file lookup can be disabled by specifying --options=none on the command line.
• Options may be set apart by new-lines, tabs or spaces.
• Long options in the options file may be written without the preceding '--'.
• Lines within the options file that begin with '#' are considered line-comments.
• Example of a default options file:

  # set default parsing to java files
  mode=java
  # brackets should be attached to pre-bracket lines
  brackets=attach
  # set 6 spaces per indent
  indent=spaces=6
  # indent switch blocks
  indent-switches
  # suffix of original files should be .pre
  suffix=.pre

Tab and Bracket Options

default indent option
If no indentation option is set, the default option of 4 spaces will be used (e.g. -s4 --indent=spaces=4).

--indent=spaces=# / -s#
Indent using # spaces per indent (e.g. -s6 --indent=spaces=6). # must be between 2 and 20. Not specifying # will result in a default of 4 spaces per indent.

--indent=tab / --indent=tab=# / -t#
Indent using tab characters. Treat each tab as # spaces (e.g. -t6 / --indent=tab=6). # must be between 2 and 20. If no # is set, treats tabs as 4 spaces.

--force-indent=tab=# / -T#
Indent using tab characters. Treat each tab as # spaces (e.g. -T6 / --force-indent=tab=6). Uses tabs as indents where --indent=tab prefers to use spaces, such as inside multi-line statements. # must be between 2 and 20. If no # is set, treats tabs as 4 spaces.

default brackets option
If no brackets option is set, the brackets will not be changed.

--brackets=break / -b
Break brackets from their pre-block statements ( e.g. ANSI C / C++ style ).

if (isFoo)
{
    bar();
}
else
{
    bar();
}

--brackets=attach / -a
Attach brackets to their pre-block statements ( e.g. Java / K&R style ).

if (isFoo) {
    bar();
} else {
    bar();
}

--brackets=linux / -l
Break brackets from class/function declarations, but attach brackets to pre-block command statements.

namespace foospace
{
    int Foo()
    {
        if (isBar) {
            bar();
            return 1;
        } else
            return 0;
    }
}

--brackets=break-closing-headers
When used with either --brackets=attach or --brackets=linux, breaks closing headers (e.g. 'else', 'catch', ...) from their immediately preceding closing brackets.

if (isFoo) {
    bar();
} else {
    anotherBar();
}

becomes:

if (isFoo) {
    bar();
}
else {
    anotherBar();
}

---

Indentation Options

--indent-classes / -C
Indent 'class' blocks so that the headers 'public:', 'protected:' and 'private:' are indented in the class block.

class Foo
{
public:
    Foo();
    virtual ~Foo();
};

becomes:

class Foo
{
    public:
        Foo();
        virtual ~Foo();
};

--indent-switches / -S
Indent 'switch' blocks so that the 'case X:' headers are indented in the switch block.

switch (foo)
{
case 1:
    a += 1;
    break;

case 2:
{
    a += 2;
    break;
}    
}

becomes:

switch (foo)
{
    case 1:
        a += 1;
        break;

    case 2:
    {
        a += 2;
        break;
    }        
}

--indent-cases / -K
Indent 'case X:' blocks from the 'case X:' headers. Case statements not enclosed in blocks are NOT indented.

switch (foo)
{
    case 1:
        a += 1;
        break;

    case 2:
    {
        a += 2;
        break;
    }
}

becomes:

switch (foo)
{
    case 1:
        a += 1;
        break;

    case 2:
        {
            a += 2;
            break;
        }
}

--indent-brackets / -B
Add extra indentation to brackets.

if (isFoo)
{
    bar();
}
else
{
    anotherBar();
}

becomes:

if (isFoo)
    {
    bar();
    }
else
    {
    anotherBar();
    }

--indent-blocks / -G
Add extra indentation to entire blocks.

if (isFoo)
{
    bar();
}
else
    anotherBar();

becomes:

if (isFoo)
    {
        bar();
    }
else
    anotherBar();

--indent-namespaces / -N
Add extra indentation to namespaces.

namespace foospace
{
class Foo
{
    public:
        Foo();
        virtual ~Foo();
};
}

becomes:

namespace foospace
{
    class Foo
    {
        public:
            Foo();
            virtual ~Foo();
    };
}

--indent-labels / -L
Add extra indentation to labels so they appear 1 indent less than the current indentation, rather than being flushed to the left (the default).

int foo()
{
    while (isFoo)
    {
        ...
        goto error;

error:
        ...
    }
}

becomes:

int foo()
{
    while (isFoo)
    {
        ...
        goto error;

    error:
        ...
    }
}

--indent-preprocessor
Indent multi-line preprocessor definitions. should be used with --convert-tabs for proper results. Does a pretty good job, but can not perform miracles in obfuscated preprocessor definitions.

--max-instatement-indent=# / -M#
Indent a maximum of # spaces in a continuous statement, relative to the previous line (e.g. --max-instatement-indent=40). # must be less than 80. If no # is set, the default value of 40 will be used.

fooArray[] = { red,
         green,
         darkblue };

fooFunction(barArg1,
         barArg2,
         barArg3);

becomes (with larger value):

fooArray[] = { red,
               green,
               darkblue };

fooFunction(barArg1,
            barArg2,
            barArg3);

--min-conditional-indent=# / -m#
Set the minimal indent that is added when a header is built of multiple-lines. This indent makes helps to easily separate the header from the command statements that follow. The default setting for this option is twice the current indent (e.g. --min-conditional-indent=8). # must be less than 40. If no # is set, the default value of 8 will be used.

// default setting makes this non-bracketed code clear
if (a < b
        || c > d)
    foo++;

// but creates an exaggerated indent in this bracketed code
if (a < b
        || c > d)
{
    foo++;
}

becomes (when setting --min-conditional-indent=0):

// setting makes this non-bracketed code less clear
if (a < b
    || c > d)
    foo++;

// but makes this bracketed code clearer
if (a < b
    || c > d)
{
    foo++;
}

Formatting Options

--break-blocks
Pad empty lines around header blocks (e.g. 'if', 'while'...). Be sure to read the Supplemental Documentation before using this option.

isFoo = true;
if (isFoo) {
    bar();
} else {
    anotherBar();
}
isBar = false;

becomes:

isFoo = true;

if (isFoo) {
    bar();
} else {
    anotherBar();
}

isBar = false;

--break-blocks=all
Pad empty lines around header blocks (e.g. 'if', 'while'...). Treat closing header blocks (e.g. 'else', 'catch') as stand-alone blocks. Be sure to read the Supplemental Documentation before using this option.

isFoo = true;
if (isFoo) {
    bar();
} else {
    anotherBar();
}
isBar = false;

becomes:

isFoo = true;

if (isFoo) {
    bar();

} else {
    anotherBar();
}

isBar = false;

--break-elseifs
Break 'else if' header combinations into separate lines.

if (isFoo) {
    bar();
} else if (isBar()) {
    anotherBar();
}

becomes:

if (isFoo) {
    bar();
} else
if (isBar()) {
    anotherBar();
}

--pad=oper / -p
Insert space padding around operators. Operators inside block parens [] are not padded. Note that there is no option to unpad. Once padded, they stay padded.

if (isFoo)
    a = bar((b-c)*a,*d--);

becomes:

if (isFoo)
    a = bar((b - c) * a, *d--);

--pad=paren / -P
Insert space padding around parenthesis on both the outside and the inside.

if (isFoo(a, b)) 
    bar(a, b);

becomes:

if ( isFoo ( a, b ) )
    bar ( a, b );

--pad=paren-out / -d
Insert space padding around parenthesis on the outside only. This can be used with unpad=paren below to remove unwanted spaces.

if (isFoo(a, b)) 
    bar(a, b);

becomes:

if (isFoo (a, b) )
    bar (a, b);

--pad=paren-in / -D
Insert space padding around parenthesis on the inside only. This can be used with unpad=paren below to remove unwanted spaces.

if (isFoo(a, b)) 
    bar(a, b);

becomes:

if ( isFoo( a, b ) )
    bar( a, b );

 

--unpad=paren / -U
Remove space padding around parenthesis on the inside and outside. Can be used in combination with the paren padding options pad=paren-out and pad=paren-in above. Only padding that has not been requested by other options will be removed.

if ( isFoo( a, b ) )
    bar( a, b );

becomes (with no padding requested):

if (isFoo(a, b))
    bar(a, b);

 

--one-line=keep-statements / -o
Don't break complex statements and multiple statements residing on a single line.

if (isFoo)
{
    isFoo = false; cout << isFoo << endl;
}

remains as is.

if (isFoo) DoBar();

remains as is.

--one-line=keep-blocks / -O
Don't break one-line blocks.

if (isFoo)
{ isFoo = false; cout << isFoo << endl; }

remains as is.

--convert-tabs / -V
Converts tabs into single spaces.

--fill-empty-lines / -E
Fill empty lines with the white space of the previous line.

--mode=c / -c
Indent a C or C++ file. The option is set from the file extension for each file. You can override the setting with this entry. It allows the formatter to identify language specific syntax such as C classes and C templates.

--mode=java / -j
Indent a Java file. The option is set from the file extension for each file. You can override the setting with this entry. It allows the formatter to identify language specific syntax such as Java classes.

---

Other Options

--suffix=####
Append the suffix #### instead of '.orig' to original filename (e.g. --suffix=.bak).

--options=####
Specify an options file #### to read and use.

--options=none
Disable the default options file. Only the command-line parameters will be used.

--errors-to-standard-output / -X
Print errors to standard-output rather than to standard-error.
This option should be helpful for systems/shells that do not have this option, such as in Windows95.

--version / -v
Print version number.

--help / -h / -?
Print a help message and quit.
