C/C++ support #232
Description
I would like to provide C/C++ formatting support.
The following features shall be initially provided:
- C/C++ formatter based on CDT (see Provision of Spotless Eclipse CDT formatter plugin. #231)
- Include order changes based on existing code for
ImportOrderStep - Extension for Gradle/Maven whereas Maven will use default file name extensions and Gradle probably the native-specs (have to do some reading first...)

I provided an example use case. Feedback is welcome.

Formatting accomplished with #295.
Sorting of
includestatements still to be supported. Usage ofImportOrderStepis not a suitable option. CDT offers a highly configurable solution. Aiming to integrate CDT include-organizer.Hence this issue remains open.

The usage of IncludeOrganizer as it is provided by CDT is not an option.
All in all it seems a better idea to implement an own organizer similar to the Spotless Java Import sorter.

I try to keep the issues in-sync with our releases, but I missed this one! We have had C/C++ support since:
It seems like a missing piece is an include organizer. One option is to build one from scratch, another would be to use clang-format (#475), and follow it up with
eclipseCdt(). Regardless, even without include organizing, it's tremendously valuable to have Eclipse CDT's autoformatter included, thanks so much @fvgh! I'm going to close this as "long-ago implemented", and if you have a specific unmet need, feel free to open a new issue.nedtwigg commentedon Aug 25, 2020
As of
plugin-gradle 5.2.0we also supportclang-format. PR for maven welcome :)
