Indent + parameter wrapping rules cause " Format was not able to resolve all violations" warning with long lines

[vinaygopinath]

When the parameter-wrapping and indent rules are enabled, and a function parameter exceeds the max line length, ktlint -F shows the warning

KtLintRuleEngine -- Format was not able to resolve all violations which (theoretically) can be autocorrected in file <absolute file path> in 3 consecutive runs of format

Sample code

class MyClass @Inject constructor(
  val someReallyLongFieldNameUsedInMyClass: SomeReallyLongDependencyClass
)

Expected Behavior

I believe the expected formatted output is

class MyClass @Inject constructor(
  val someReallyLongFieldNameUsedInMyClass:
    SomeReallyLongDependencyClass
)

Observed Behavior

The actual formatted output is

class MyClass @Inject constructor(
  val someReallyLongFieldNameUsedInMyClass:
  SomeReallyLongDependencyClass // I wonder if the class name *not* being indented is the cause of the issue?
)

Your Environment

• Version of ktlint used: 1.1.0

• Relevant parts of the .editorconfig settings

  [*]
  charset = utf-8
  end_of_line = lf
  max_line_length = 100
  
  [*.{kt,kts}]
  ktlint_code_style = android_studio

• Name and version (or code for custom task) of integration used (Gradle plugin, Maven plugin, command line, custom Gradle task): Command line
• Operating System and version: Debian Testing, 6.1.0-15-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.66-1 (2023-12-09) x86_64 GNU/Linux

On second thought, I think the warning is due to the interaction between

1. standard:parameter-list-spacing which expects the field name and its class to be separated by a colon and a space, as in exactly in the unformatted code

   class MyClass @Inject constructor(
    val someReallyLongFieldNameUsedInMyClass: SomeReallyLongDependencyClass
   )

2. standard:parameter-wrapping which, when the field name and class name exceed the max line length, complains about a "Missing newline before SomeReallyLongDependencyClass"
3. standard:max-line-length
4. and standard:indent

Technically I could not reproduce your problem because you most likely have changed the class names to shorter names. But with decreasing the max_line_length to 74, I was able to reproduce it.

Problem is indeed caused by rules parameter-list-spacing and parameter-wrapping. They disagree with each other about how to format the parameter.
