when writing in visual studio code my brackets used to automatically format as
function(){
//cursor here
}
however now it automaticly formats as
function(){
//cursor here}
I have cruised through stack overflow and user settings in vs code but failed to find anything of use.
Specifically in java
Ctrl+Shift+P to open the command palette, type and select Java:Open Java Formatter Settings
Modify the following in the open file
<setting id="org.eclipse.jdt.core.formatter.brace_position_for_annotation_type_declaration" value="end_of_line"/>
