Coding Conventions & Style
From MNE-CPP Wiki
The QtCreator Wizard:
We strongly recommend to make use of the MNE-CPP QtCreator wizard to add new classe to any project (you can find the installation guide here).
Naming Conventions:
Please make use of the following coding conventions as soon as you plan to contribute to MNE-CPP.
Object | Rule |
---|---|
Namespace | MYNAMESPACE |
Classes | MyClass |
Member functions | myFunction |
Member variables | m_typeMeaningfulName |
Local variables | typeMeaningfulName |
Command Line Output:
Please make use of qDebug() for debugging, qInfo() for user information and qWarning for user warning purposes. qFatal() should only be used to initiate a total application stop. Please note that Eigen structures can only be plotted via std::cout (you therefore need to add #include<iostream.h>).
Readability and Understandability:
- Avoid complex and condensed expressions
- Use meaningful variable names
Using Doxygen:
Please use the DoxyGen style to document your code.
