What is this special indentation style called? ("brackets are folded")

I saw these questions here . I am wondering if there is an official name for the following indentation style:

void fooBar(String s) { while (true) { // ... do something } }

When the opening curly brace is on the same line as the control statement, instructions are inserted inside and the final curly bracket is at the same level of indentation as the control statement, the style is called K & R-Style. So, is there a name for the indentation style for this code example above?
