Macaw-Movies/Development/Code Rules

Naming

• English is used for all names (class, function, variable…)
• camelCase is used for all names

Variables

• Abreviations are not tolerated anywhere in the code. All names must be as explicit as possible
• members start with m_
• local variables start with l_
• function parameter names do not have a specific prefix
• global variables are prohibited, the few accepted are capitalized
• class names start with a capital letter

Functions

• blank line before calling return
• blank line between two logical blocs

Conditions

The following rules sould be followed (1 space after key word, 1 between condition and curly bracket).

if (variable > 0) {
    ...do something...
} else if (variable == 0) {
    ...do something else...
} else {
    ...do something else...
}

If there is more conditions to fulfill:

if (cond1
   & cond2) {
    ...do something...
}

For the switch/case:

switch (var)
{
case 1:
    fct();
    break;
case 2:
    otherFct();
    break;
}
