B4J Question Where can I get a list of all B4X constructs for a Code Formatter?

I need to finalize my office automation tool and just need one final piece of information, a b4x constructs list. Is there a central location here where I can get all these?

Thanks

I'm not sure that I understand what are you looking for.

Let me clarify, currently these are my "start block" constructs for indentation determination.

"For", "Do", "While", "Select", "Case", "Else",  "#Else", "Sub", "Try", "#Region", "Private", "Public", "#If",

My "end blocks" are

"Next", "Loop", "End Select", "End Sub", "Case", "Else", "#Else", "Else If", "#Else If", "End If", "#End If", "Catch", "End Try", "#End Region"

Now with the list I want to check if I have everything covered to ensure that the code formatter I'm doing works well.

Thanks.

What will you do with lines that continue, broken up with the " _" character? Should the code be indented after first such line break? To make that more difficult, how about the smart strings that can be written in multiple lines?

Good question. Line continuation character removal can be turned on or off.

Currently my implementation trims all lines on first run and then remove blank spaces, then depending on the construct, indents or not. So where for example there is a smart string, nothing is done on it except indent it based on the last rule applied to the previous line.
