# C++ Style Guide

In general, [Google's coding standard](http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cppguide.xml) is used, and we strongly encourage to read it.

Below are our specific (but not all!) exceptions to the Google's coding standard:

- We use `.cpp` and `.hpp` files, not `.cc` and `.h` (`.c` and `.h` are used for C code), in UTF-8 encoding
- File names are lowercase with underscores, like `file_reader.cpp`
- We use `#pragma once` instead of the `#define` Guard in header files.
- We don't include system, std and boost headers directly, use `#include "../std/<wrapper.hpp>"`
- We ARE using C++ exceptions
- We are using all features of C++11 (the only known exception is thread_local which is not fully supported on all platforms)
- We don't use boost libraries which require linking (and prefer C++11 types over their boost counterparts)

Naming and formatting

- We ALWAYS use two spaces indent and don't use tabs
- We don't have hardcoded line width, but keep it reasonable to fit on the screen
- Doxygen-style comments can be used
- Underscores are allowed only in prefixes for member variables and namespace names, like `int m_countriesCount; namespace utf_parser`
- Don't specify `std::` and `boost::` prefixes (headers in std/ folder already have `using std::string`)
- Use right-to-left order for variables/params: `string const & s` (reference to the const string)
- In one line `if`, `for`, `while` we do not use brackets. If one line `for` or `while` is combined with one line `if`, do use brackets for cycle.
- Space after the keyword in conditions and loops. Space after `;` in `for` loop
- Space between binary operators: `x = y * y + z * z`
- Space after double dash

**We write code without warnings!**

## ClangFormat

Most of our coding style is specified in a configuration file for [ClangFormat](http://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html).
To automatically format a file, install `clang-format` and run:

    clang-format -i file.cpp file.hpp other_file.cpp

## Formatting Example/Guide/Reference

```cpp
#include "../std/math.hpp"

typedef double TMyTypeStartsWithCapitalTLetter;

class ComplexClass
{
public:
  Complex(double rePart, double imPart) : m_re(rePart), m_im(imPart) {}
  double Modulus() const { return sqrt(m_re * m_re + m_im * m_im); }

private:
  // We use m_ prefix for member variables
  double m_re;
  double m_im;
};

namespace
{

void CamelCaseFunctionName(int lowerCamelCaseVar)
{
  static int counter = 0;
  counter += lowerCamelCaseVar;
}

} // namespace

namespace lower_case
{

template <class TTemplateTypeStartsWithCapitalTLetter>
void SomeFoo(int a, int b,
             TTemplateTypeStartsWithCapitalTLetter /* we avoid compilation warnings */)
{
  for (int i = 0; i < a; ++i)
  {
    // IMPORTANT! We DON'T use one-liners for if statements for easier debugging.
    // The following syntax is invalid: if (i < b) Bar(i);
    if (i < b)
      Bar(i);
    else
    {
      Bar(i);
      Bar(b);
      // Commented out call
      // Bar(c);
    }
  }
}

} // namespace lower_case

// Switch formatting
int Foo(int a)
{
  switch (a)
  {
  case 1:
    Bar(1);
    break;

  case 2:
  {
    Bar(2);
    break;
  }

  case 3:
  default:
    Bar(3);
    break;
  }

  return 0;
}

// if, for, while formatting

if (condition)
  foo();
else
  bar();

if (condition)
{
  if (condition)
    foo();
  else
    bar();
}

for (size_t i = 0; i < size; ++i)
  foo(i);

while (true)
{
  if (condition)
    break;
}

// Space after the keyword

if (condition)
{
}

for (size_t i = 0; i < 5; ++i)
{
}

while (condition)
{
}

switch (i)
{
}

// Space between operators, and don't use space between unary operator and expression
x = 0;
x = -5;
++x;
x--;
x *= 5;
if (x && !y)
{
}
v = w * x + y / z;
v = w * (x + z);

// space after double dash
```

## Tips and Hints

- If you see outdated code which can be improved - DO IT NOW (but in the separate pull request)! Make this awesome world even more better! 
- Your code should work at least on [mac|win|linux|android][x86|x86_64], [ios|android][armv7|arm64] architectures
- Your code should compile well with gcc 4.8+ and clang 3.5+
- Try to avoid using any new 3party library if it is not fully tested and supported on all our platforms
- Cover your code with unit tests! See examples for existing libraries
- Check Base and Coding libraries for most of the basic functions
- Ask your team if you have any questions
- Use dev@maps.me mailing list to ask all developers and bugs@maps.me mailing list to post bugs
- Release builds contain debugging information (for profiling), production builds are not
- If you don't have enough time to make it right, leave a `// TODO(DeveloperName): need to fix it` comment

### Some useful macros:

- `#ifdef DEBUG | RELEASE | OMIM_PRODUCTION`
- `#ifdef OMIM_OS_ANDROID | OMIM_OS_IPHONE | OMIM_OS_MAC` (and some other useful OS-related macros, see `std/target_os.hpp`)
- Use `ASSERT(expression, (out message))` and `ASSERT_XXXXXX` macros often to check code validity in DEBUG builds
- Use `CHECK(expression, (out message))` and `CHECK_XXXXXX` macros to check code validity in all builds
- Use `LOG(level, (message))` for logging, below is more detailed description for level:
    * `LINFO` - always prints log message
    * `LDEBUG` - logs only in DEBUG
    * `LWARNING` - the same as `LINFO` but catches your attention
    * `LERROR` - the same as `LWARNING`, but crashes in DEBUG and works in RELEASE
    * `LCRITICAL` - the same as `LERROR` and ALWAYS crashes
- Need scope guard? Check `MY_SCOPE_GUARD(name, func)`
- Use `std::array::size()` to calculate plain C-array's size
- Declare your own exceptions with `DECLARE_EXCEPTION(name, baseException)`, where `baseException` is usually `RootException`
- Throw exceptions with `MYTHROW(exceptionName, (message))`
- A lot of useful string conversion utils are in `base/string_utils.hpp`
