-## Coding conventions in the Samba 3.0 tree
-##
-
-===========
-Quick Start
-===========
-
-Coding style guidelines are about reducing the number of unnecessary
-reformatting patches and making things easier developers to work together.
-You don't have to like them or even agree with them, but once put in place
-we all have to abide by them (or vote to change them). However, coding
-style should never outweigh coding itself and so the the guidelines
-described here are hopefully easier enough to follow as they are very
-common and supported by tools and editors.
-
-The basic style, also mentioned in the SAMBA_4_0/prog_guide.txt is the
-Linux kernel coding style (See Documentation/CodingStyle in the kernel
-source tree). The closely matches what most Samba developers use already
-anyways.
-
-But to save you the trouble of reading the Linux kernel style guide, here
-are the highlights.
-
-
-* Maximum Line Width is 80 Characters
- The reason is not for people with low-res screens but rather sticking
- to 80 columns prevents you from easily nesting more than one level of
- if statements or other code blocks. Use source/script/count_80_col.pl
- to check your changes.
-
-* Use 8 Space Tabs to Indent
- No whitespace filler.
-
-* No Trailing Whitespace
- Use source/script/strip_trail_ws.pl to clean you files before committing.
-
-* Follow the K&R guidelines. We won't go throw them all here. You have
- a copy of "The C Programming Language" anyways right? You can also use
- the format_indent.sh script found in source/script/ if all else fails.
-
-
-
-============
-Editor Hints
-============
-
-Emacs
------
-Add the follow to your $HOME/.emacs file:
-
- (add-hook 'c-mode-hook
- (lambda ()
- (c-set-style "linux")
- (c-toggle-auto-state)))
-
-
-Vi
---
-(Thanks to SATOH Fumiyasu <fumiyas@osstech.jp> for these hints):
-
-For the basic vi editor including with all variants of *nix, add the
-following to $HOME/.exrc:
-
- set tabstop=8
- set shiftwidth=8
-
-For Vim, the following settings in $HOME/.vimrc will also deal with
-displaying trailing whitespace:
-
- if has("syntax") && (&t_Co > 2 || has("gui_running"))
- syntax on
- function! ActivateInvisibleCharIndicator()
- syntax match TrailingSpace "[ \t]\+$" display containedin=ALL
- highlight TrailingSpace ctermbg=Red
- endf
- autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead * call ActivateInvisibleCharIndicator()
- endif
- " Show tabs, trailing whitespace, and continued lines visually
- set list listchars=tab:»·,trail:·,extends:…
-
- " highlight overly long lines same as TODOs.
- set textwidth=80
- autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.c,*.h exec 'match Todo /\%>' . &textwidth . 'v.\+/'

-=========================
-FAQ & Statement Reference
-=========================
-
-Comments
---------
-
-Comments should always use the standard C syntax. I.e. /* ... */. C++
-style comments are not currently allowed.
-
-
-Indention & Whitespace & 80 columns
------------------------------------
-
-To avoid confusion, indentations are to be 8 character with tab (not
-8 ' ' characters. When wrapping parameters for function calls,
-alignment parameter list with the first parameter on the previous line.
-Use tabs to get as close as possible and then fill in the final 7
-characters or less with whitespace. For example,
-
- var1 = foo(arg1, arg2,
- arg3);
-
-The previous example is intended to illustrate alignment of function
-parameters across lines and not as encourage for gratuitous line
-splitting. Never split a line before columns 70 - 79 unless you
-have a really good reason. Be smart about formatting.
-
-
-If, switch, & Code blocks
--------------------------
-
-Always follow an 'if' keyword with a space but don't include additional
-spaces following or preceding the parentheses in the conditional.
-This is good:
-
- if (x == 1)
-
-This is bad:
-
- if ( x == 1 )
-
-Yes we have a lot of code that uses the second form and we are trying
-to clean it up without being overly intrusive.
-
-Note that this is a rule about parentheses following keywords and not
-functions. Don't insert a space between the name and left parentheses when
-invoking functions.
-
-Braces for code blocks used by for, if, switch, while, do..while, etc...
-should begin on the same line as the statement keyword and end on a line
-of their own. NOTE: Functions are different and the beginning left brace
-should begin on a line of its own.
-
-If the beginning statement has to be broken across lines due to length,
-the beginning brace should be on a line of its own.
-
-The exception to the ending rule is when the closing brace is followed by
-another language keyword such as else or the closing while in a do..while
-loop.
-
-Good examples:
-
- if (x == 1) {
- printf("good\n");
- }
-
- for (x=1;
- x<10;
- x++)
- {
- print("%d\n", x);
- }
-
- do {
- printf("also good\n");
- } while (1);
-
-Bad examples:
-
- while (1)
- {
- print("I'm in a loop!\n"); }
-
-
-Goto
-----
-
-While many people have been academically taught that goto's are fundamentally
-evil, then can greatly enhance readability and reduce memory leaks when used
-as the single exit point from a function. But in no Samba world what so ever
-is a goto outside of a function or block of code a good idea.
-
-Good Examples:
-
-int function foo(int y)
-{
- int *z = NULL;
- int ret = 0;
-
- if ( y < 10 ) {
- z = malloc(sizeof(int)*y);
- if (!z) {
- ret = 1;
- goto done;
- }
- }
-
- print("Allocated %d elements.\n", y);
-
- done:
- if (z)
- free(z);
-
- return ret;
-}
-
-
-Checking Pointer Values
------------------------
-
-When invoking functions that return pointer values, either of the following
-are acceptable. Use you best judgement and choose the more readable option.
-Remember that many other people will review it.
-
- if ((x = malloc(sizeof(short)*10)) == NULL ) {
- fprintf(stderr, "Unable to alloc memory!\n");
- }
-
-or
-
- x = malloc(sizeof(short)*10);
- if (!x) {
- fprintf(stderr, "Unable to alloc memory!\n");
- }
-
-
-Primitive Data Types
---------------------
-
-Samba has large amounts of historical code which makes use of data types
-commonly supported by the C99 standard. However, at the time such types
-as boolean and exact width integers did not exist and Samba developers
-were forced to provide their own. Now that these types are guaranteed to
-be available either as part of the compiler C99 support or from lib/replace/,
-new code should adhere to the following conventions:
-
- * Booleans are of type "bool" (not BOOL)
- * Boolean values are "true" and "false" (not True or False)
- * Exact width integers are of type [u]int[8|16|32|64]_t
