Purpose
Coding standards are a part of defect prevention. They gather rules, advice and best practices for developing software, especially the code writing part. Here are listed some ideas what such standards could be for developing with C++ and within the OpenOffice.org project.
Identifying Rules
To make it easier to talk about the rules, each one gets an identifier. Because items can be added or sorted out, such ids are not just cardinal numbers, but strings with some semantic content. Each rule belongs to a topic with an id, and has an id itself.
Example: FDESIGN:OneTask is the rule with the id "OneTask" which belongs to the topic function design with the id "FDESIGN".
Topics by Problem Domain
Topics may appear at multiple domains.
Middle- and Lowlevel Design
- DESIGN - Design
- HIERARCHY - Hierarchies of Virtual Classes
- CLSDESIGN- Class Design
- IFC - Interfaces
- FDESIGN - Function Design
Classes
- CLSDESIGN- Class Design
- HIERARCHY - Hierarchies of Virtual Classes
- IFC - Interfaces
- ENC - Encapsulation
- CLSINIT - Class Construction, Destruction and Copying
- FDESIGN - Function Design
Functions and Implementation Generally
- GEN - General Coding
- FDESIGN - Function Design
- FIMPL - Function Implementation
- ERR - Error Handling
- SECURITY - Security
Preferred vs. Discarded Types and Habits
Files, Formatting, Documentation
Meta Rules and Development Process
Topics in Alphabetical Order
Checkable Rules
- CLSDESIGN - Class Design
- CLSINIT - Class Construction, Destruction and Copying
- CODEDOCU - Code Documentation
- DESIGN - Design

- FORMAT - Code Format
- FDESIGN - Function Design
- FIMPL - Function Implementation
- GEN - General Coding
- HEADERS - Header Files
- HIERARCHY - Hierarchies of Virtual Classes
