Bugzilla ~~~~~~~~ Glade-3 bugs are tracked in the glade3 module of http://bugzilla.gnome.org SVN ~~~ The Glade-3 repository is hosted at svn.gnome.org To check out a copy of Glade-3 you can use the following commands: svn checkout svn://svn.gnome.org/svn/glade3 glade3 Patches ~~~~~~~ Patches must be in the unified format (diff -u) and must include a ChangeLog entry. Please send all patches to bugzilla. Currently svn only permits this with the following command: svn diff --diff-cmd=/usr/bin/diff -x -uBp . > file.patch Coding Style ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Code in Glade-3 should follow the GNOME Programming Guidelines (http://developer.gnome.org/doc/guides/programming-guidelines/), basically this means being consistent with the sorrounding code. The only exception is that we prefer having braces always on a new line e.g.: if (...) { ... } Note however that a lot of the current codebase still uses the following style: if (...) { ... } Over time we'll migrate to the preferred form. Naming conventions: - function names should be lowercase and prefixed with the file name (or, if the function is static and the name too long, with an abbreviation), e.g: glade_project_window_my_function () gpw_my_loooooooooong_named_fuction () - variable names should be lowercase and be short but self explanatory; if you need more than one word use an underscore, e.g: my_variable Also try to order your functions so that prototypes are not needed.
