Formatting breaks code, converting else if into elseif in some cases

[daveschoutens]

After running npm-groovy-lint --format on a project, I noticed it resulted in several compilation issues.

I tried to whittle the problematic code down to a minimal-ish example:

    boolean foo(boolean a, boolean b) {
        if (a) {
            return true
        } else if(b) { // post-format, this breaks (ends up as `elseif`)
            return true
        }
    }

I found that if I add a space, like else if (b) { it stops exhibiting this behavior, but I'm not sure if that's the whole story.

I fixed the issue and released it in a beta version of next major release, please can you confirm it's ok with your whole file ? :)

npm install -g [email protected]

Addendum: i had an beta release issue, so the beta to use is [email protected] , not [email protected]

Looks like it's fixed 👍

Thanks!

Great :)
I'll close the issue when it will be delivered in main release and not beta ^^
Don't hesitate to notify if you see issues with the beta :) ( all test cases pass, but I still have some issues with VsCode Groovy Lint)
