Re: [tracecompass-dev] Code style adendum

Makes sense.

Would you like to write a page on the wiki documenting the coding style? :)

Hi all, I want to propose an adendum to our coding style.

Slightly adapted, of course.

I propose for naming methods and fields:

* Do not shorten words: so getCurentDisplay and not getCurrDisplay

* Do not use acronyms, unless you have to (getSipie == bad) and it
exists outside the bounds of Tracecompass.

* When using an acronym, 2 chars == UPPERCASE, 3+chars  = lowercase. So
IOException = yes, CPUException becomes CpuException.

An interesting exception is ID, as the noun ID is uppercase, getID is
acceptable, getId is less. getId would be acceptable for psychology
software though.


Thoughts?
