Coding Style
============
See http://korganizer.kde.org/develop/hacking.html for an HTML version.
Formatting
----------
- No Tabs.
- Indent with 2 spaces.
- A line must not have more than 80 chars.
- Put Spaces between brackets and arguments of functions.
- For if, else, while and similar statements put the brackets on the same line
as the statement.
- Function and class definitions have their brackets on separate lines.
Example:
void MyClass::myFunction()
{
if ( blah == fasel ) {
blubbVariable = arglValue;
} else {
blubbVariable = oerxValue;
}
}
Header Formatting
-----------------
- General formatting rules apply.
- Access modifiers are indented.
- Put curly brackets of class definition on its own line.
- Double inclusion protection defines are all upper case letters and are
composed of the namespace (if available), the classname and a H suffix
separated by underscores.
- Inside a namespace there is no indentation.
Example:
#ifndef XKJ_MYCLASS_H
#define XKJ_MYCLASS_H
namespace XKJ {
class MyClass
{
public:
MyClass();
private:
int mMyInt;
};
}
#endif
API docs
--------
- Each public function must have a Doxygen compatible comment in the header
- Use C-style comments without additional asterisks
- Indent correctly.
- Comments should be grammatically correct, e.g. sentences start with uppercase
letters and end with a full stop.
- Be concise.
Example:
/**
This function makes tea.
@param cups number of cups.
@result tea
*/
Tea makeTea( int cups );
Class and File Names
--------------------
- Put classes in files, which have the same name as the class, but only
lower-case letters.
- Designer-generated files should have a name classname_base.ui and shoul
contain a class called ClassnameBase.
- Classes inheriting from designer-generated classes have the same name as the
generated class, but without the Base suffix.
Class and Variable Names
------------------------
- For class, variable, function names seperate multiple words by upper-casing
the words precedeed by other words.
- Class names start with an upper-case letter.
- Function names start with a lower-case letter.
- Variable names start with a lower-case letter.
- Member variables of a class start with "m" followed by an upper-case letter.
