Line breaks between function definitions

Question

Is there any way to to automatically insert spaces between function definitions. E.g. my initial sources are:

void func1() {     // func1 body. } void func2() {     // func2 body. } 

I would like it to be reformatted to:

void func1() {     // func1 body. }   void func2() {     // func2 body. } 

And if there are more line breaks, fixed number of them should be kept.

Answer 1

As far as I can tell, there's currently no way to force clang-format to insert blank lines between consecutive functions where there currently are none. IMHO this is a huge missing feature.

Answer 2

Your best bet is to set 'MaxEmptyLinesToKeep: 2' inside .clang-format file to let clang-format keep 2 lines intact.
