There are restrictions on what will be indented. Blocks within methods, classes, arrays, etc., will not be indented. Blocks containing braces or multi-line define statements will not be indented. Without this option the preprocessor block is not indented." # This does indent for #ifdef, but not for #ifndef, so it's quite inconsistent # Indentation of preprocessor directives as done by this option is not very common in Arduino AVR Boards core, and where it is used, it's typically done inconsistently throughout the file indent-preproc-block # http://astyle.sourceforge.net/astyle.html#_indent-preproc-cond # "Indent preprocessor conditional statements to the same level as the source code." # Indentation of preprocessor directives as done by this option is very rare in Arduino AVR Boards core indent-preproc-cond # Options I have not implemented from formatter.conf or examples_formatter.conf: # examples_formatter.conf # Not a valid option in the latest version of AStyle.
