| Running the Formatter Application |
| </h1> |
| <p> |
| Running the formatter application is as simple as running the |
| org.eclipse.cdt.core.CodeFormatter application from the commandline: |
| </p> |
| <pre> |
| eclipse -application org.eclipse.cdt.core.CodeFormatter [ OPTIONS ] [ -config <configFile> ] <files> |
| </pre> |
| <p>When invoked on MacOS, the paths to point to the configuration file or the source files can be relative, but they will be computed |
| from the location of the eclipse.ini file. This is a limitation of the Eclipse launcher on MacOS. On all other platforms, the relative paths |
| are computed relative to the current user directory.</p> |
