How to set the cfg to allow strings with \n or \r?

[ScottEAdams]

For example:

[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@\r\n", message]

When running the formatter it also removes these instances of new lines / carriage return.

I ran into this same problem. The problem is not with the config. It's with the AppleScript that is run. On my system the AppleScript is at ~/Library/Services/Uncrustify_opened_Xcode_sources.workflow

The problematic code is here:

if (suffix = "m" or suffix = "h") then
    set rawSource to quoted form of (text of currentDocument as Unicode text)
    set formattedSource to do shell script " echo " & rawSource & " | /usr/local/bin/uncrustify -l OC -q -c " & "'" & uncrustifyConfigFilePath & "'"
    set text of currentDocument to formattedSource
end if

I have not yet figured out a way to fix it though, not have I found a workaround.

This code "fixes" the problem, but it creates a new one:

if (suffix = "m" or suffix = "h") then
    set rawSource to quoted form of (text of currentDocument as Unicode text)
    set formattedSource to do shell script " echo " & rawSource & " | /usr/local/bin/uncrustify -l OC -q -c " & "'" & uncrustifyConfigFilePath & "'"

    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to the return
    set the item_list to every text item of formattedSource
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to the "\\n"
    set formattedSource to the item_list as string
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""

    set text of currentDocument to formattedSource
end if

The problem is that removes ALL line breaks--not just the ones within a string. What we need is a regex, which is above my head. I'm hoping some else can find a fix for this.

Here's a link to a stackoverflow post that I created before finding out that it was a bug. I'm posting this as a cross reference just in case anyone there finds a workaround.

I just posted a workaround on the stackoverflow page. Here it is:

NSInteger newLineAsciiCode = 10;
NSString *newLineCharacter = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%c", newLineAsciiCode];
NSString *someString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Lorem ipsum dolor.%@Eget nisl nec risus", newLineCharacter];

This string thing is such a bitch.

Solved it. Given the direction above, replace the statement with whats below this paragraph. I submitted a commit, hopefully it can get fixed up and nobody else has to waste their Sunday wresting with AppleScript. 👍

if (suffix = "m" or suffix = "h") then

tell application "Xcode" to (do shell script "'/usr/local/bin/uncrustify' -c " & "'" & uncrustifyConfigFilePath & "' -l OC --no-backup '" & currentDocumentPath & "'")

end if
end repeat
display dialog "DONE"
end tell

Thanks for the plugin by the way!

This might be ovi, but the &'s are actually & 's.

Thanks for updating this heliumroe. I have tested your fix briefly and it seems to well for me. I have marked your answer as the accepted answer on stackoverflow. Once your pull request gets merged I would think that this issue could be closed.
