Empty lines not removed?

Just installed dotnet-format and tested with the following code (empty lines intended). Used command was dotnet format Test.sln --fix-whitespace --fix-style. I expected the empty lines to be removed, but they remained. How to apply a more strict formatting that removes unnecessary empty lines?

Tested on this code, which is input and output at the sae time (meaning output remains unchanged)

using System;

namespace Test
{
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Threading;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;

    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            DemoAsync().Wait();
        }

        static async Task DemoAsync()

        {

            var d = new Dictionary<int, int>();

            for (int i = 0; i < 10000; i++)

            {

                int id = Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId;

                int count;

                d[id] = d.TryGetValue(id, out count) ? count + 1 : 1;



                await Task.Yield();

            }

            foreach (var pair in d) Console.WriteLine(pair);

        }

    }
}

@anthony-steele-cko Glad things are working for you now. To fix both whitespace formatting and analyzer reported issues in the same run, you can use the command dotnet format --fix-whitespace --fix-analyzers warn.

I confirm that this works for me. This time I have a Directory.Build.Props file containing:

<Project>
  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="StyleCop.Analyzers" Version="1.1.118" />
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

In the .editorconfig I have file markup as given above.

Note that when opening the soltution in VS, I have errors for e.g.

Error	SA1508	A closing brace should not be preceded by a blank line.	
Error	SA1505	An opening brace should not be followed by a blank line.	
Error	SA1507	Code should not contain multiple blank lines in a row	

I run dotnet format --fix-analyzers

These are all fixed! 🎉 Blank lines are gone.

More conventional spacing, issues e.g. public SomeClass ( string pk , string sk ) was not fixed by this run, so I run dotnet format a second time with no args, and they are fixed, I get public SomeClass(string pk, string sk)

I can also confirm that without the .editorconfig markup to make these errors not warnings, dotnet format --fix-analyzers warn will remove the blank lines.

Thank you.
