nl_before_case

Whether to add a newline before case, and a blank line before a case statement that follows a ; or }.

Possible values are true and false, default false.

Examples

true

Before:

switch(z) {
case 1:
  std::cout << "One" << '\n';
  break;
case 3:
  std::cout << "Three" << '\n';
  break;

default:
  std::cout << "Something else" << '\n';
}

After

switch(z) {
case 1:
  std::cout << "One" << '\n';
  break;

case 3:
  std::cout << "Three" << '\n';
  break;

default:
  std::cout << "Something else" << '\n';
}

false

Example remains unchanged.
