+1 for recommendations -1 for requirements From: ee4j-community-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ee4j-community-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Werner Keil Sent: Montag, 9. April 2018 15:09 To: EE4J community discussions Subject: Re: [ee4j-community] EE4J code conventions? Looking at the name "Jakarta EE" its heritage at Apache Foundation applies quite a few plugins like RAT (for license checks) etc. in a Parent POM. At the very least a similar POM and plugin-management should exist. Whether or not certian plugins like code-format checkers, Findbugs, checkstyle etc. are recommended or required is a different story. Eclipse has not really enforced this and the huge difference in target platforms from IoT to EE4J also makes it hard to find "One POM that Rules them All", but a consistent code quality of different specs should not be left to manual reviews by some architecture council, PMC or whoever else. They are notoriously understaffed and busy with too many things already, so what can be automated should ideally be automated ;-)

Sounds like a good idea. And at least for (somewhat obvious) Eclipse formatters there is also a Maven plugin allowing to apply them via a build job or a particular profile as well as check during the build if desired.

+1, Dmitry. Coding conventions should be a project-specific requirement, not an EE4J requirement. EE4J could possibly recommend some coding conventions, but the requirements should be left up to each individual project.

My 2 cents here is that it should be up to the projects. I agree with a general concept of having code conventions, but I don?t like the idea of enforcing it to all EE4J projects (it can be recommended though). Checkstyle plugin with recommended conventions can be configured in EE4J parent pom, which is another 'nice to have' feature.

I wonder if it would be a good idea to define a set of code conventions for EE4J going forward.
It looks like Oracle never really had one, or at least if there was one did not enforce it. Specially the Mojarra code base and the parts of the code in GlassFish that implement JACC and JASPIC have a rather inconsistent formatting and overal style.
My initial proposal would be something along the following lines:
Formatting:
Eclipse/Sun code conventions with - Spaces only - Indentation size 4 spaces - Maximum line width 160 - Maximum width for comments 120 - No indent of Javadoc tags - No newline after @param tags
As for the Javadoc, the Sun code conventions don't specify these directly. There's a separate article from Oracle though that uses examples for an highly indented style though, that would be an alternative candidate.
The style I'm referring to above seems fairly common and looks like this for example:
@param a The first parameter. For an optimum result, this should be an odd number between 0 and 100.
Variable naming style:
Based on the advice from Uncle Bob's Clean Code, specifically:
-No cryptic abbreviations like c, ta, rx, ct, with the exception of the well established i and J in loops -No variable names like ret, rvalue, result etc for variables that are returned from methods. Instead, the should be named after what they actually return. For example:
Bad:
public Permissions getCallerPermission(....) { Permissions rvalue; // ton of code
return rvalue; }
Good:
public Permissions getCallerPermissions(....) { Permissions callerPermissions; // ton of code
return callerPermissions; }
-No Hungarian variations for collections like usrLst, usArray, arrUsers, UserCol, etc, and no such variation for elements of the collection like el, elm, usrEl, userElem, currentUsr, curUser, userCr, etc. Omit the Hungarian and use the element type name directly and the plural of that for the collection. For example:
Bad:
for (User curUsr : colUser) { ... }
Good:
for (User user : users) { ... }
Conditional blocks
- Handle the short and fast error case for method parameters early instead of the happy path. For example:
Bad:
public void foo(Bar bar) { if (bar != null) { // lots of code here } else { throw new IllegalStateException("Bar should not be null"); } }
Good:
public void foo(Bar bar) { if (bar == null) { throw new IllegalStateException("Bar should not be null"); }
// lots of code here }
- if/else blocks that return don't need to be if/else blocks. For example:
Bad:
if (foo == something) { return somethingFoo; } else if (foo == somethingElse) { return somethingElseFoo; }
Good:
if (foo == something) { return somethingFoo; }
if (foo == somethingElse) { return somethingElseFoo; }
Defaults
- Omit initialisation of instance variables to their default values. For example:
Bad:
public class SomeClass { private int someNumber = 0; private Foo someFoo = null; private boolean isFoo = false; }
Good:
public class SomeClass { private int someNumber; private Foo someFoo; private boolean isFoo; }
- Omit using the pubic modifier for interface methods .For example:
Bad:
public interface MyInterface { public void MyMethod(); }
Good:
public interface MyInterface { void MyMethod(); }
- Omit unnecessary braces. For example:
Bad
return (1);
Good
return 1;
A large number of additional code convention rules are contained in the well known SonarQube. The default rule set ("the sonar way") is probably a good starting point and with sonarcloud.io it would be relatively easy to check each EE4J project. Rules that would be specifically good IMHO to pay attention to are the ones that warn for high levels of cyclomatic complexity and large classes.
Thoughts?
Kind regards, Arjan Tijms
