code formattingvisual studio
Seriously, I don't know what to google. Here's the thing, I like this Java-like code writing:
if (condition == true) {
doSomeStuff();
}
But VisualStudio "helps" me with its own "style", which I don't like and I am unable to change (after rather big time of desperate checking all settings :/)
if (condition == true)
{
DoStuff();
}
I obviously want the "{" char to be in same line where condition is …
I am using MS Visual Studio 2010 professional.
None: The file is not included in the project output group and is not compiled in the build process. An example is a text file that contains documentation, such as a Readme file.
Compile: The file is compiled into the build output. This setting is used for code files.
Content: Allows you to retrieve a file (in the same directory as the assembly) as a stream via Application.GetContentStream(URI). For this method to work, it needs a AssemblyAssociatedContentFile custom attribute which Visual Studio graciously adds when you mark a file as "Content"
Embedded resource: Embeds the file in an exclusive assembly manifest resource.
Resource (WPF only): Embeds the file in a shared (by all files in the assembly with similar setting) assembly manifest resource named AppName.g.resources.
Page (WPF only): Used to compile a xaml file into baml. The baml is then embedded with the same technique as Resource (i.e. available as `AppName.g.resources)
ApplicationDefinition (WPF only): Mark the XAML/class file that defines your application. You specify the code-behind with the x:Class="Namespace.ClassName" and set the startup form/page with StartupUri="Window1.xaml"
SplashScreen (WPF only): An image that is marked as SplashScreen is shown automatically when an WPF application loads, and then fades
DesignData: Compiles XAML viewmodels so that usercontrols can be previewed with sample data in Visual Studio (uses mock types)
DesignDataWithDesignTimeCreatableTypes: Compiles XAML viewmodels so that usercontrols can be previewed with sample data in Visual Studio (uses actual types)
EntityDeploy: (Entity Framework): used to deploy the Entity Framework artifacts
CodeAnalysisDictionary: An XML file containing custom word dictionary for spelling rules
You need to put your directory structure in your project directory. And then click "Show All Files" icon in the top of Solution Explorer toolbox. After that, the added directory will be shown up. You will then need to select this directory, right click, and choose "Include in Project."

Go to Tools > Options > Text Editor > [Language, i.e.: C#] > Code Style > Formatting > New Lines
This is where you can set your new line options for braces.
