rails.vim indentation settings ignored in macvim

[gorkunov]

I customize indention settings for vim on ubuntu with:

autocmd User Rails if &ft == 'javascript' | set tabstop=4 softtabstop=4 shiftwidth=4 expandtab | endif

macvim ignores this line and uses default settings (indent=2).
Also i tried:

autocmd User Rails/**/*.js  set tabstop=4 softtabstop=4 shiftwidth=4 expandtab

but has no effect too.

What does this tell you? :verbose set sw?

[gorkunov]

shiftwidth=2
   Last set from ~/.vim/bundle/vim-rails/autoload/rails.vim

But in my vimrc:
https://github.com/gorkunov/vimconfig/blob/master/vimrc#L298

[gorkunov]

macvim installed from homebrew (vim version displayed 7.3.237)

[graywh]

And you've verified that the autocmd is still present after starting Vim? :autocmd User

[gorkunov]

Yes, it's presented.

You're on a recent version of rails.vim, right? Does the javascript file have a modeline? I don't know what else could cause this to fail. Both of your autocmds work for me. The relevant portion of the code definitely runs after indenting is adjusted.

You can try set verbose=9 and see if your autocmd is being executed (it's a lot to sift through). You can also try adjusting the position of that autocmd in your vimrc (though it's hard to imagine that helping in this particular case). Or you can wait on me to disable the javascript indent adjusting (I plan to do it after the next release).

I use last version of rails.vim from github. All js files haven't modeline settings. Also I found that settings customization overrided by rails.vim settings only in macvim (vim works fine). This is macvim log when started opening js file:

Error detected while processing /Users/gorkunov/.vim/indent/javascript.vim:

raises some alarm bells. Can you fix that and see if the problem persists?

[gorkunov]

I removed this file for experiment but nothing's changed.

[tpope]

Can you try broadening the autocmd to

autocmd User Rails set tabstop=4 softtabstop=4 shiftwidth=4 expandtab

And then checking if it works in either JavaScript or Ruby?

[gorkunov]

nothing's changed. Not for ruby, not for js.

[tpope]

Well, given the lack of other clues, I'm going to give my standard advice of removing all other plugins, stripping down your vimrc, and seeing if the problem persists. If it doesn't, you're a binary search away from finding the cause.

[gorkunov]

also I updated mac vim to snapshot n.61 (vim 7.3.260) when migrated to os x lion.

[tpope]

I just tried in snapshot 61 on Lion and it works fine.

[tpope]

Hopefully rendered moot now.
