Bracket indenting issue

[inline]

I do a lot of C++ and Rust programming and I’m having an issue when closing brackets.

fn foo() {
    let x = 5;
}

fn bar() {
    let x = 5;
    } // This should automatically dedent.

This happens fairly often and not just with functions but with structs, classes, branching statements, etc.

I just tried typing your example and it works for me, it automatically unindents the } as soon as I type it.

It mostly happens when there’s no code inbetween the braces:

This is due to how the indentation engine works:

Lua do-end block improperly indented

I suspect the indentation engine gets confused when the end is on the line immediately after the function, because function says, indent the next line, end says unindent the line the end is on, so the rules conflict and only one (the first one) is honored... I think writing it like this should work: function a(x) end

It still happens with whitespace between the braces:

I see what you mean. This looks like a core ST bug to me. Doing a Selection -> Select All, Edit -> Line -> Reindent seems to work as expected, so it is only a problem while typing.

This problem has been pretty annoying for me, but hopefully the Reindent command can make it slightly less annoying.

Do you know where I could report this bug?

The ST devs have been pretty good at monitoring https://github.com/SublimeTextIssues/Core/issues recently.

Thanks, I’ll post it there.
