<br>I'm asking this question simply because Allman is really popular and I found strange that not even after tweaking ( <a href="http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/structclang_1_1format_1_1FormatStyle.html">http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/structclang_1_1format_1_1FormatStyle.html</a> ) clang-format a little I got a real Allman style or something that I'm just happy with, looks like that clang-format is designed to keep a certain style in any case.<br></blockquote><br></div><div>Clang-format's style support is developed on an as-needed basis.

The other styles are supported because developers who use those styles (read: general Google devs, Chromium devs, and Mozilla devs) wanted to use clang-format and put in the options to use the style.</div><div><br></div><div>None of these styles use Allman indentation, which is the only reason it's not supported.</div><div><br></div><div>Sebastian</div><br></body></html>
