Matlab code formatting similar to AStyle? [closed]

Answer 1

In recent versions of MATLAB, you can use the "Smart Indent" tool programmatically using the MATLAB Editor API.

As an example, say you want to fix indentation of all M-files contained in a specific directory:

%# gel list of m-files in a directory
BASE_DIR = 'c:\path\to\folder';
files = dir( fullfile(BASE_DIR,'*.m') );
files = {files.name};

for i=1:numel(files)
    %# open file in editor, apply smart indentation, save and close
    doc = matlab.desktop.editor.openDocument( fullfile(BASE_DIR,files{i}) );
    doc.smartIndentContents;
    doc.save;
    doc.close;
end
