Stand-alone Java code formatter/beautifier/pretty printer? [closed]

by

JIndent (Commercial) does what you want:

http://www.jindent.com/

I’ve also used Jalopy in the past to do this, it’s open source:

http://jalopy.sourceforge.net/

EDIT: I will note that Jalopy is fairly old and there doesn’t seem to be any recent updates to it. I’m not quite sure if it will work with Java 5/6. You might want to look at Jacobe instead:

There’s also a more complete list of formatters here on Roedy Green’s site:
