Jalopy does not format annotations

Thread view:

I sometimes use "Jalopy" as an Ant-task to reformat my source
code, before I publish it.

Now I found that Jalopy does not seem to be available for Java
1.5 and thus can not format annotations. It seems to not
reformat a source file with an annotation at all.

Is there any other source code reformatter that I can invoke
from the command line or from Ant and that will format Java
1.5 source code?

I just found "Jacobe" and will try this.
