Cannot reproduce this at all. Can you share all the surrounding code for a simple example that exhibits the problem? Anything in View / IDE log after you tab?

In the case of for without braces, it never works. Even in a test project which has just been created. Maybe it clashes with some configuration option.

public class NewClass {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("");
        while(true)
            System.out.println("");
        for(int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
            System.out.println("");
        }
        int j = 1;
        if(j == 1)
            System.out.println("");
        for(int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
            sout    
    }
}

OK, yes, without braces it doesn't work. Whereas while and if do. Workaround is obviously to use better code formatting braces. 😄 Adding labels for contributions.

Hi, I’d like to work on this issue as my first contribution.
Please let me know if it’s still available and if there are any guidelines I should follow.
Thanks!

@sumitcodes899 submission should of course tackle the problem and be tested. The submission should be minimal and only touch code that actually needs to be touched. Formatting should follow the style of the surrounding code. Testing should be implemented if possible, see the target project for examples.

So implement the change, test it and the open a PR.
