I’ve noticed that TOAD has a formatter feature. This would really be a BIG productivity booster for me… if I could figure out how to set it up correctly.
I was able to set up most of the rules to do what I want, but I’m stuck at how to handle the spacing. I want to use spaces, not tabs for spacing. However, the spacing naturally depends on what statement it is.
E.g. the word ‘if’ is two characters long, so I want the statements in the if block to have 3 spaces, like:
if condition_is_true then
do_something();
end if;
On the other hand, the word ‘when’ has four characters, so I want the statements under it to have 5 spaces:
when others then
do something();
end;
The same goes for ‘select’, ‘where’, ‘from’, etc.
How do I specify a spacing rule for each type of statement/clause?
