+ Coding Style Convention
+ -------------------------
+
+This document describes the coding style convention
+used in KPovModeler.
+
+Author: Andreas Zehender <zehender@kde.org>
+Date: 16 June 2001
+
+If you edit existing files or create new ones, please follow this convention.
+This ensures that the code is consistent and clear.
+
+1) Indentation
+--------------
+
+- Use 3 spaces as basic offset. Do not use tabs for indentation.
+- Do not indent access keywords (public, protected, private) as
+ well as signal/slot keywords.
+- Do not indent braces.
+- Put braces in separate lines.
+- Indent case statements.
+
+Example:
+class abcd
+{
+public:
+ void someMethod( );
+};
+
+void abcd::someMethod( )
+{
+ if( 1 == 2 )
+ {
+ }
+ else
+ {
+ switch( x )
+ {
+ case 1:
+ y = 2;
+ break;
+ default:
+ y = -2;
+ }
+ }
+}
+
+
+2) Spacing
+----------
+
+Use many spaces.
+Use it
+- before and after brackets
+- before and after operators
+- after commas
+
+Examples:
+
+a = someMethod( ); // Notice the space between the brackets!
+b = anotherMethod( ( a + b ) / 2, 3 ) || 23456;
+if( ( a == 2 ) && !b )
+
+
+3) Type Modifiers (Pointers and References)
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Put type modifiers behind the type, not before the variable name.
+
+Example:
+
+const QString& type;
+PMObject* obj;
+
+
+4) Names
+--------
+
+Variables:
+----------
+Member variables begin with "m_".
+Static variables begin with "s_".
+Member pointers begin with "m_p".
+
+All variables begin with a lower case (member variables after the "m_").
+Use upper case character to separate different words.
+
+Examples:
+
+class abcd
+{
+ int m_firstMember;
+ char* m_pFirstMember;
+ static const char* s_pAStaticPointerToConstCharThatMeansItIsAString;
+};
+
+void abcd::efgh( )
+{
+ int aLocalVariable;
+}
+
+Classes:
+--------
+All classes start with "PM" and a upper case character.
+
+Methods:
+--------
+All methods start with a lower case character.
+
+Set methods begin with "set".
+Get methods do NOT begin with "get".
+
+Examples:
+
+int PMSPhere::centre( ) const;
+void PMSphere::setCentre( );
+
+5) KDoc Comments
+----------------
+
+Use KDoc comments to document classes.
+
+Don't add a description if you just overload a virtual function
+that doesn't add some functionality.
+
+Example:
+
+/** Returns the internal object name (not i18n'ed) */
+virtual PMObject::className( ) const;
+
+/** */
+virtual PMSphere::className( ) const;
+
+KDoc will then generate the following output:
+
+<documentation>
+PMObject* newObject ( )
+
+[const virtual]
+
+Reimplemented from PMObject.
+</documentation>
+
+
+6) Long Lines
+--------------
+Try to use only 80 characters per line.
+
+
+7) Sample .emacs File
+---------------------
+
+Here is a sample .emacs file. It is a mix of several files, so some
+things are set multiple times. But it works :-)
+
+<.emacs>
