[Sapforge-general] Source code conventions

[Edson C. E. R. <eds...@mg...>]

At this time, we have a deal about source code conventions.

They are:

1) Tab size =3D ident size =3D 4 spaces. Tabs are always converted to =
spaces.
2) Class names always starts Capitalized. Compound words are capitalized =
too. Ex: DataType.
3) There are no suffixes/prefixes to class names and interface names. As =
rule, a interface is the generic name for an type. Ex: if we have =
several data types (like Integer, Varchar and so on) we will name the =
interface as DataType, and the classes will be IntegerDataType, =
VarcharDataType and so on. If you will need a class with exactly name of =
an interface, judge if you really need that interface. In the real =
world, we had detected that we don't need the DataType interface. In our =
project, we will have only the DataType class. Anyone that needs an =
specialized will extends DataType class. This can be a problem if we =
need Dynamic proxies in the future, but when we need them, then will be =
time to refactory all the project ;-)
4) The package names will be net.sourceforge.sapforge.studio, as =
suggested by reversing the name of our site. No capital letters in the =
name of packages.
5) For all the rest, Sun coding convention.

All agree that? Someone has any other suggestion?

Thanks to all,

Edson Richter
