Re: [platform-swt-dev] SWT style documentation

[Leo Ufimtsev <Leonidas@xxxxxxxxxx>]

As a thought, when we move to Gtk4 port, consider doing a bulk format.

I had the same thought... a while ago.

We don't have anything that defines the style officially in SWT documentation afaik.

I think I started to define "correct" style based on the existing SWT code, but noticed SWT's style was not consistent across the codebase.

Then I tried to make a code formatter based on a formatter that was used by the SWT forerunners, this thing is fairly close to what we want:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=472222

But still has some quirks if I recall correctly and didn't gain traction.

And so we went back to the C age and format code by hand :-|

Although maybe there is some in platform that relates to SWT? idk.

Hi all,

I've been spending some time updating and writing SWT documentation on
the wiki page.

I was wondering, is there an existing article somewhere that outlines
things like code style/comments, naming conventions, etc.? If so, please
point it out as I'd like to incorporate some of it into my efforts.

Thanks,
