Delphi IDE奇怪的源代码格式

Question

Sometimes after pressing some keys in Delphi IDE all functions headers become looking like this:

constructor TClient.Create(

  const AServer: TServer;

  const APhone: AnsiString);

It's a little annoying cause the code formatter (CTRL-D) cannot amend such code properly and I have to remove all line breaks manually. How does it happen?

Answer 1

I found how it actually happens and can repeat these formatting results: you format the code with the specific sintax error, correct the code and then format it again. The example is here:

type
  TTableDesc = record
    constructor Create(););
  end;

  function func(const a: string; const b: Boolean; const c: pointer): string;

After the actions I mentioned above you'll get this:

type
  TTableDesc = record
    constructor Create();
  end;

function func(

  const a: string;

  const b: Boolean;

  const c: pointer): string;

The best way to avoid it is just not to format the code with errors.
