Bug 173081 [clean up] Remove trailing whitespace should not remove space after * in doc comment
Reported: 2007-02-06 10:17:57 | Status: resolved fixed

I20070206-0010 Remove trailing whitespace always removes the space at the end of line " * " in doc comments: /** * Bla. * * Blah. */ A line "<indentation>* " is effectively an empty line, so the whitespace should stay if "Ignore empty lines" is checked. This is also what the formatter does.
