Coding Conventions & Style

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.
