This document describes the recommended coding style for kdelibs. Nobody is forced to use this style, but to have consistent formatting of the source code files it is recommended to make use of it.

In short: Kdelibs coding style follows the Qt coding style, with one main difference: using curly braces even when the body of a conditional statement contains only one line.

Odsazení

  • Bez tabulátorů
  • 4 mezery namísto jednoho tabulátoru

Variable declaration

  • Each variable declaration on a new line
  • Each new word in a variable name starts with a capital letter (so-called camelCase)
  • Avoid abbreviations
  • Take useful names. No short names, except:
    • Single character variable names can denote counters and temporary variables whose purpose is obvious
  • Variables and functions start with a lowercase letter

Příklad:

// špatně
KProgressBar *prbar;
QString prtxt, errstr;

// správně
KProgressBar *downloadProgressBar;
QString progressText;
QString errorString;


Whitespace

  • Use blank lines to group statements
  • Use only one empty line
  • Use one space after each keyword
  • For pointers or references, use a single space before '*' or '&', but not after
  • No space after a cast

Příklad:

// špatně
QString* myString;
if(true){
}

// správně
QString *myString;
if (true) {
}

Braces

As a base rule, the left curly brace goes on the same line as the start of the statement.

Příklad:

// špatně
if (true)
{
}

// správně
if (true) {
}

Exception: Function implementations, class, struct and namespace declarations always have the opening brace on the start of a line.

Příklad:

void debug(int i)
{
    qDebug("foo: %i", i);
}

class Debug
{
};

Use curly braces even when the body of a conditional statement contains only one line.

Příklad:

// špatně
if (true)
    return true;

for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
    qDebug("%i", i);

// správně
if (true) {
    return true;
}

for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
    qDebug("%i", i);
}

Switch statements

Case labels are on the same column as the switch

Example:

switch (myEnum) {
case Value1:
    doSomething();
    break;
case Value2:
    doSomethingElse();
    // fall through
default:
    defaultHandling();
    break;
}

Line breaks

Try to keep lines shorter than 100 characters, inserting line breaks as necessary.

Qt Includes

  • If you add #includes for Qt classes, use both the module and class name. This allows library code to be used by applications without excessive compiler include paths.

Příklad:

// špatně
#include <QString>

// správně
#include <QtCore/QString>

Artistic Style (astyle) automatic code formatting

You can use astyle (>=1.23) to format code or to test if you have followed this document. Run the following command:

astyle --indent=spaces=4 --brackets=linux \
       --indent-labels --pad=oper --unpad=paren \
       --one-line=keep-statements --convert-tabs \
       --indent-preprocessor \
       `find -type f -name '*.cpp'-or -name '*.cc' -or -name '*.h'`

Při použití astyle (>=2.01) musíte spustit následující příkaz:

astyle --indent=spaces=4 --brackets=linux \
       --indent-labels --pad-oper --unpad-paren --pad-header \
       --keep-one-line-statements --convert-tabs \
       --indent-preprocessor \
       `find -type f -name '*.cpp' -or -name '*.cc' -or -name '*.h'`

Note: With more recent astyle --brackets has become --style, so change --brackets=linux to --style=linux.

You can find a shell script to run this command in:

Emacs and Vim scripts

The kde-dev-scripts directory in the kdesdk module contains, among other useful things, some useful additions to the Emacs and Vim text editors that make it easier to edit KDE code with them.

Emacs

The kde-emacs directory contains a set of key bindings, macros and general useful code. It is compatible with both GNU Emacs and XEmacs.

To start using kde-emacs, add the following to your .emacs:

(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/kde-emacs")
(require 'kde-emacs)

Many settings can be changed by editing the "kde-emacs" group via M-x customize-group.

For more information, including what the key bindings are and what additional settings you could add to your .emacs, please check kde-emacs.el itself.

Vim

You can find a vim script in kde-devel-vim.vim that helps you to keep the coding style correct. In addition to defaulting to the kdelibs coding style it will automatically use the correct style for Solid and kdepim code. If you want to add rules for other projects feel free to add them in the SetCodingStyle function.

To use the script, include it in your ~/.vimrc like this:

source /path/to/kde/sources/kdesdk/scripts/kde-devel-vim.vim
