JsonRpc-Cpp Code

JsonRpc-Cpp coding style
=========================

I) Code layout

The software uses the ANSI coding standard layout. Use 2 space indentation instead 
of tabs.

void foo(int barc, char** barv)
{
  int test = 0;

  if(test)
  {
    /* do something */
  }
  else
  {
    /* do other thing */
  }

  while(run)
  {
    /* do loop */
  }

  for(i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i++)
  {
    /* do other loop */
  }

  do
  {
    /* do another loop */
  } while(run);
}

The C++ comments ('//') can be used as well as the C comments ('/* */').

/* my short comment */

// another short comment

/* a longer comment
 * on multiple lines
 * ...
 */

II) Code organization

The code has to follow these recommandations : 
- Always initialize your variables;
- Put "static" keyword when functions / global variables is not used outside the file;
- Try to avoid static variables in functions (try to make reentrant things);
- All member variables of a class should be prefixed with "m_".

Each file, function, structure, classe and global variable MUST be documented using doxygen. Here is a
complete example :

/**
 * \file my_file.h
 * \brief Short description.
 * \author name
 * \date 2008
 */

#ifndef MY_FILE_H
#define MY_FILE_H

/**
 * \struct my_struct
 * \brief Short description.
 */
struct my_struct
{
  int a; /**< description of a */
  char b; /**< description of b */
};

/**
 * \class MyClass
 * \brief Short description of MyClass.
 */
class MyClass
{
  public:
    /**
     * \brief Constructor.
     */
    MyClass();

    /**
     * \brief Destructor.
     */
    ~MyClass();

    /**
     * \brief A function
     * \param count parameter description
     * \return true if success, false otherwise
     */
    bool AFunction(unsigned int count);

  private:
    /**
     * \brief Member description.
     */
    unsigned int m_count;
};

/**
 * \var my_var
 * \brief Description of this global variable.
 */
struct my_struct* my_var = NULL;

/**
 * \brief Doing something
 * \param a number to use
 * \param b char to use
 * \return 0 if success, -1 otherwise
 */
int foo(int a, char b);

#endif /* MY_FILE_H */
