This is the list of names <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">reserved to the<br/>

compilers and system headers of interest, and should not be used<br/>

This library is written to appropriate C++ coding standards. As such,<br/>
|
||
it is intended to precede the recommendations of the GNU Coding<br/>
|
||
Standard, which can be referenced in full here:<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<a class="link" href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Formatting">http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Formatting</a><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
The rest of this is also interesting reading, but skip the "Design<br/>
|
||
Advice" part.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
The GCC coding conventions are here, and are also useful:<br/>
|
||
<a class="link" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/codingconventions.html">http://gcc.gnu.org/codingconventions.html</a><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
In addition, because it doesn't seem to be stated explicitly anywhere<br/>
|
||
else, there is an 80 column source limit.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="filename">ChangeLog</code> entries for member functions should use the<br/>
|
||
classname::member function name syntax as follows:<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
1999-04-15 Dennis Ritchie <dr@att.com><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
* src/basic_file.cc (__basic_file::open): Fix thinko in<br/>
|
||
_G_HAVE_IO_FILE_OPEN bits.<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Notable areas of divergence from what may be previous local practice<br/>
|
||
(particularly for GNU C) include:<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
01. Pointers and references<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
char* p = "flop";<br/>
|
||
char& c = *p;<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
char *p = "flop"; // wrong<br/>
|
||
char &c = *p; // wrong<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Reason: In C++, definitions are mixed with executable code. Here,<br/>
|
||
<code class="code">p</code> is being initialized, not <code class="code">*p</code>. This is near-universal<br/>
|
||
practice among C++ programmers; it is normal for C hackers<br/>
|
||
to switch spontaneously as they gain experience.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
02. Operator names and parentheses<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
operator==(type)<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
operator == (type) // wrong<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Reason: The <code class="code">==</code> is part of the function name. Separating<br/>
|
||
it makes the declaration look like an expression.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
03. Function names and parentheses<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
void mangle()<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
void mangle () // wrong<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Reason: no space before parentheses (except after a control-flow<br/>
|
||
keyword) is near-universal practice for C++. It identifies the<br/>
|
||
parentheses as the function-call operator or declarator, as<br/>
|
||
opposed to an expression or other overloaded use of parentheses.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
04. Template function indentation<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
template<typename T><br/>
|
||
void<br/>
|
||
template_function(args)<br/>
|
||
{ }<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
template<class T><br/>
|
||
void template_function(args) {};<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Reason: In class definitions, without indentation whitespace is<br/>
|
||
needed both above and below the declaration to distinguish<br/>
|
||
it visually from other members. (Also, re: "typename"<br/>
|
||
rather than "class".) <code class="code">T</code> often could be <code class="code">int</code>, which is<br/>
|
||
not a class. ("class", here, is an anachronism.)<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
05. Template class indentation<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits><br/>
|
||
class basic_ios : public ios_base<br/>
|
||
{<br/>
|
||
public:<br/>
|
||
// Types:<br/>
|
||
};<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
template<class _CharT, class _Traits><br/>
|
||
class basic_ios : public ios_base<br/>
|
||
{<br/>
|
||
public:<br/>
|
||
// Types:<br/>
|
||
};<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
template<class _CharT, class _Traits><br/>
|
||
class basic_ios : public ios_base<br/>
|
||
{<br/>
|
||
public:<br/>
|
||
// Types:<br/>
|
||
};<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
06. Enumerators<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
enum<br/>
|
||
{<br/>
|
||
space = _ISspace,<br/>
|
||
print = _ISprint,<br/>
|
||
cntrl = _IScntrl<br/>
|
||
};<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
enum { space = _ISspace, print = _ISprint, cntrl = _IScntrl };<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
07. Member initialization lists<br/>
|
||
All one line, separate from class name.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
gribble::gribble()<br/>
|
||
: _M_private_data(0), _M_more_stuff(0), _M_helper(0)<br/>
|
||
{ }<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
gribble::gribble() : _M_private_data(0), _M_more_stuff(0), _M_helper(0)<br/>
|
||
{ }<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
08. Try/Catch blocks<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
try<br/>
|
||
{<br/>
|
||
//<br/>
|
||
}<br/>
|
||
catch (...)<br/>
|
||
{<br/>
|
||
//<br/>
|
||
}<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
try {<br/>
|
||
//<br/>
|
||
} catch(...) {<br/>
|
||
//<br/>
|
||
}<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
09. Member functions declarations and definitions<br/>
|
||
Keywords such as extern, static, export, explicit, inline, etc<br/>
|
||
go on the line above the function name. Thus<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
virtual int<br/>
|
||
foo()<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
virtual int foo()<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Reason: GNU coding conventions dictate return types for functions<br/>
|
||
are on a separate line than the function name and parameter list<br/>
|
||
for definitions. For C++, where we have member functions that can<br/>
|
||
be either inline definitions or declarations, keeping to this<br/>
|
||
standard allows all member function names for a given class to be<br/>
|
||
aligned to the same margin, increasing readability.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
10. Invocation of member functions with "this->"<br/>
|
||
For non-uglified names, use <code class="code">this->name</code> to call the function.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
this->sync()<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
sync()<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Reason: Koenig lookup.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
11. Namespaces<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
namespace std<br/>
|
||
{<br/>
|
||
blah blah blah;<br/>
|
||
} // namespace std<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
namespace std {<br/>
|
||
blah blah blah;<br/>
|
||
} // namespace std<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
12. Spacing under protected and private in class declarations:<br/>
|
||
space above, none below<br/>
|
||
i.e.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
public:<br/>
|
||
int foo;<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
public:<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
int foo;<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
13. Spacing WRT return statements.<br/>
|
||
no extra spacing before returns, no parenthesis<br/>
|
||
i.e.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
}<br/>
|
||
return __ret;<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
}<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
return __ret;<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
-NOT-<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
}<br/>
|
||
return (__ret);<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
14. Location of global variables.<br/>
|
||
All global variables of class type, whether in the "user visible"<br/>
|
||
space (e.g., <code class="code">cin</code>) or the implementation namespace, must be defined<br/>
|
||
as a character array with the appropriate alignment and then later<br/>
|
||
re-initialized to the correct value.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
This is due to startup issues on certain platforms, such as AIX.<br/>
|
||
For more explanation and examples, see <code class="filename">src/globals.cc</code>. All such<br/>
|
||
variables should be contained in that file, for simplicity.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
15. Exception abstractions<br/>
|
||
Use the exception abstractions found in <code class="filename">functexcept.h</code>, which allow<br/>
|
||
C++ programmers to use this library with <code class="literal">-fno-exceptions</code>. (Even if<br/>
|
||
that is rarely advisable, it's a necessary evil for backwards<br/>
|
||
compatibility.)<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
16. Exception error messages<br/>
|
||
All start with the name of the function where the exception is<br/>
|
||
thrown, and then (optional) descriptive text is added. Example:<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
<code class="code"><br/>
|
||
__throw_logic_error(__N("basic_string::_S_construct NULL not valid"));<br/>
|
||
</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Reason: The verbose terminate handler prints out <code class="code">exception::what()</code>,<br/>
|
||
as well as the typeinfo for the thrown exception. As this is the<br/>
|
||
default terminate handler, by putting location info into the<br/>
|
||
exception string, a very useful error message is printed out for<br/>
|
||
uncaught exceptions. So useful, in fact, that non-programmers can<br/>
|
||
give useful error messages, and programmers can intelligently<br/>
|
||
speculate what went wrong without even using a debugger.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
17. The doxygen style guide to comments is a separate document,<br/>
|
||
see index.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
The library currently has a mixture of GNU-C and modern C++ coding<br/>
|
||
styles. The GNU C usages will be combed out gradually.<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Name patterns:<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
For nonstandard names appearing in Standard headers, we are constrained<br/>
|
||
to use names that begin with underscores. This is called "uglification".<br/>
|
||
The convention is:<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Local and argument names: <code class="literal">__[a-z].*</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Examples: <code class="code">__count __ix __s1</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Type names and template formal-argument names: <code class="literal">_[A-Z][^_].*</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Examples: <code class="code">_Helper _CharT _N</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Member data and function names: <code class="literal">_M_.*</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Examples: <code class="code">_M_num_elements _M_initialize ()</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>

Static data members, constants, and enumerations: <code class="literal">_S_.*</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Examples: <code class="code">_S_max_elements _S_default_value</code><br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Don't use names in the same scope that differ only in the prefix,<br/>
|
||
e.g. _S_top and _M_top. See BADNAMES for a list of forbidden names.<br/>
|
||
(The most tempting of these seem to be and "_T" and "__sz".)<br/>
|
||
<br/>
|
||
Names must never have "__" internally; it would confuse name<br/>
|
||
unmanglers on some targets. Also, never use "__[0-9]", same reason.<br/>
