Description Chris Hamons 2010-05-18 17:10:59 UTC

Description of Problem:
In the text editor, you can select a set of using's and sort them. In visual studio, this sticks the System usings first. In monodevelop, it is strictly alphabetical. This violates a few stylecop rules, as they want System first.


Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open a file with some using Systems and other using.
2. Select all usings
3. Right click, orgainize usings -> Sort


Actual Results:
Sorted alphabetical, with System near the end

Expected Results:
Sorted alphabetical, with Systems sorted alphabetical first, then everything else sorted alphabetical.


How often does this happen?

Already fixed in MD 2.4 beta 1.

Comment 2 Michael Hutchinson 2010-05-18 17:41:53 UTC

I still get a strict alphabetical sort in trunk.

Comment 3 Michael Hutchinson 2010-05-18 17:44:03 UTC

I already filed an enhancement for this.

Sorry, I closed the wrong bug.

Comment 5 Mike Krueger 2010-05-19 07:21:25 UTC

This is different than 606120.

Comment 6 Mike Krueger 2010-05-19 07:52:00 UTC

Implemented.

The difference of this report is that the systems ordering can be hard-wired. We don't need a style setting for this and the using sorting is specified by st.

The enhancement michael requested would require a style setting with custom sorting rules. Eclipse has something like that - and it's nice to have. I would like to have a eclipse like sort ordering style panels in future MD versions.

But for now the hard wired system before other usings rule is enough & simple to implement in our current order usings feature.
