C/C++ Style Guidlines

See example.cpp for a simple example of the style I use.

.clang-format is a clang-format style file containing the rules for spacing, indentation, max line width etc.

You can format example.cpp with clang-format -i example.cpp (this will automatically load the .clang-format file)

Naming Conventions/Style

Variables should be snake case: int my_var = 0;

Typedefs should be snake_case with a _t identifier:

typedef int my_favourite_type_t;

Structs should be snake_case and typedef'd, like so:

typedef struct my_struct {
    int struct_member;
} my_struct_t;

Class names should follow a CamelCase format:

class MyClassInCamelCase {

Class functions should be snake_case:

class MyClassInCamelCase {
    void has_function_in_snake_case();
};

Member variables should also be denoted with an m_, like so:

class MyClassInCamelCase {
    void has_function_in_snake_case();

    int m_var;
};
