auto indent on xml

[stefdhol]

Hi,

I'm using RSyntaxTextArea for some xml related java developments (dispaying xml retrieved from blob in database etc.).
The problem I am facing is that the xml I insert in the TextArea does not get displayed as:

Code: Select all

<x>
    <y>test</y>
</x>

but as

Code: Select all

<x><y>test</y></x>

--> no autoIndent etc.

Code:

Code: Select all

RSyntaxTextArea txt = new RSyntaxTextArea();
          txt.setSyntaxEditingStyle(SyntaxConstants.SYNTAX_STYLE_XML);
          txt.setCodeFoldingEnabled(true);
          txt.setAutoIndentEnabled(true);
          txt.setText("<x><y>test</y></x>");

Any Idea how I can get full xml "pretty printing" and tag folding?

Thanks
Stefaan

RSTA doesn't have a pretty-printing feature out-of-the-box unfortunately. If you'd like that considered for a future release, please add a Feature Request so it can be tracked.

That said, for RText I integrated JTidy, which is a simple port of HTML Tidy for Java. You might consider trying that out to see if it works for you.
