Andrus Adamchik commented on CAY-1062:
--------------------------------------
I guess we haven't received any complaints from Windows users so far about the line endings, as Java compilers and Eclipse don't care much about them, and make it transparent. So I went for consistency, as mixed line endings are causing me pain already (and UNIX line endings are transparent to Windows users).
But I totally agree with your general point, and if somebody's willing to implement platform-specific Velocity template line endings (maybe via postprocessing of generated files?) , and document the SVN tricks for cross-platform development on a cgen page of the docs, I have no objections, although the value likely will be mariginal.

> ImportUtils should use UNIX line ending when generating imports in 'generate'... Otherwise classes generated on UNIX and Windows will differ in line endings, and in a developer group that is a mix of windows/unix/mac, people will constantly override each other. Note that the rest of the template ensures line ending consistency, it is only the ImportUtils that use platform-specific endings.
