-
DO use fixed length types defined in
include/openenclave/types.h
instead of language keywords determined by the compiler (e.g.int64_t, uint8_t
, notlong, unsigned char
). -
DO use
const
andstatic
and visibility modifiers to scope exposure of variables and methods as much as possible. -
DO use doxygen comments, with [in,out] direction annotation in all public API headers. This is also encouraged, but not strictly required, for internal API headers as well.
-
DON'T use global variables where possible.
-
DON'T use abbreviations unless they are already well-known terms known by users (e.g., "app", "info"), or are already required for use by developers (e.g, "min", "max", "args"). Examples of bad use would be
num_widgets
instead ofwidget_count
, andopt_widgets
instead ofoption_widgets
oroptional_widgets
.
For all C/C++ files (*.c
, *.cpp
and *.h
), we use clang-format
(exactly
version 3.6) to apply our code formatting rules. After modifying C/C++ files and
before merging, be sure to run:
$ ./scripts/format-code
This allows us apply formatting choices such as the use of Allman style braces and the 80 character column width consistently.
Please stage the formatting changes with your commit, instead of making an extra
"Format Code" commit. Your editor can likely be setup to automatically run
clang-format
across the file or region you're editing. See:
- clang-format.el for Emacs
- vim-clang-format for Vim
- vscode-cpptools for Visual Studio Code
The .clang-format file describes the style that is enforced by the script, which is based off the LLVM style with modifications closer to the default Visual Studio style. See clang-format style options for details.
The following license header must be included at the top of every file:
// Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
// Licensed under the MIT License.
It should be prefixed with the file's comment marker. If there is a compelling
reason to not include this header, the file can be added to
.check-license.ignore
.
All files are checked for this header with the script:
$ ./scripts/check-license
Naming conventions we use that are not automated include:
- Use
lower_snake_case
for variable, member/field, and function names. - Use
UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
for macro names and constants. - Prefer
lower_snake_case
file names for headers and sources. - Prefer full words for names over contractions (i.e.
memory_context
, notmem_ctx
). - Prefix names with
_
to indicate internal and private fields or methods (e.g._internal_field, _internal_method()
). - The single underscore (
_
) is reserved for local definitions (static, file-scope definitions). e.g. static oe_result_t _parse_sgx_report_body(..). - Prefix
struct
definitions with_
, and always create atypedef
with the suffix_t
:
typedef struct _oe_private_key
{
uint64_t magic;
mbedtls_pk_context pk;
} oe_private_key_t;
- Prefix Open Enclave specific names in the global namespace with
oe_
(e.g.oe_result_t, oe_call_enclave
).
Above all, if a file happens to differ in style from these guidelines (e.g.
private members are named m_member
rather than _member
), the existing style
in that file takes precedence.
Note that we no longer use CamelCase
nor double underscores (__
), but you
may find remnants and so again should prefer the local style. This is especially
the case for classes, which are still using PascalCase
. For now, follow the
existing style. The project Committers prefer to fix style issues in bulk using
automation, so avoid submitting PRs intended to fix only a few instances of the
inconsistent style.
For other files (*.asm
, *.S
, etc.) our current best guidance is consistency:
- When editing files, keep new code and changes consistent with the style in the files.
- For new files, it should conform to the style for that component.
- For new components, any style that is broadly accepted is fine.
