This document describes the recommended coding style for kdepim. Nobody is forced to use this style, but to have consistent formatting of the source code files it is strengly recommended to make use of it.
 
<!--T:2-->
'''In short: Kdepim coding style follows the [http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/Kdelibs_Coding_Style Kdelibs coding style].'''
 
</translate>
 
'''Under Construction'''
 
 
Rules with test and automatic changes
 
- don't use any <TAB>s
  The change script makes a substitution of any <TAB> with eight spaces.
  The change works for the complete source, even within comments and strings.
  That might be to much and change the vertical alignment of the code.
- trim the lines
- no twice (or more) empty lines
 
Migration
 
As discussed at KDEPIM-Treff, Berlin 3. of march 2013, all the files of KDEPIM
will be reviewed to follow the coding style.
This will be done over a long time, directory after directory, for each of the
rules defined above.
For each rules, one can find one or two script(s).
The first script is to check a single file or a complete directory for all
.h and .cpp files.
 
If present, the second script makes the changes for a single file or a complete
directory for all .h and .cpp files.
For some complicated situation, the script makes no change.
 
The scripts
- don't use any <TAB>s
    coding-style-check-Tabs.sh
    coding-style-change-Tabs.sh
  The output of the check is:
    /home/guy-kde/projects/kdepimlibs/ktnef/ktnefparser.cpp
    1->308: Tab at 16:  stream_ >> i;              // i <- attribute type & name
    2->311: Tab at 16:  stream_ >> i;              // i <- data length
    3->326: Tab at 22:  case attATTACHMENT:        // try to get attachment info
    4->367: Tab at 16:  stream_ >> u;      // u <- checksum
   
  showing:
  - the name of the file which is under test.
  - the number of occurence, the line number, the position found and the line itself.
 
- trim the lines
    coding-style-check-Trim.sh
    coding-style-change-Trim.sh
 
- no twice (or more) empty lines
    coding-style-check-Twice.sh
    coding-style-change-Twice.sh
  The output of the check is:
    /home/guy-kde/projects/kdepimlibs/syndication/rss2/enclosure.cpp
    1->25: next empty line found
    2->26: next empty line found
    3->30: next empty line found
   
  showing:
  - the name of the file which is under test.
  - the number of occurence and the line number.
