Please read these guidelines first, to get a basic +knowledge of the style. You can find it in +/usr/src/linux/Documentation/CodingStyle for example. + +A few other guidelines apply to this program, too: + +- Please use new-style C++ casts, if you need to make a cast. + +- The class PwMDoc is _only_ for internal document-data- + management. Don't put any view- or user-interface-stuff in + it. Not even a MessageBox. You may use the class PwMDocUi + to add UI-functionality to the document. + +- Don't add any document related stuff to another class + than PwMDoc. Exception: Put it into its own class and + invoke this class from within PwMDoc. + +- This program makes extensive use of inline functions, for + example to access data-members from outside of the class. + Please try to do so, too. + +- Don't try to optimize code for speed, where speed doesn't + matter. Instead optimize it for readability. + +- In the code we use the string "PwM" instead of "PwManager", + where needed. This has two reasons. The original name of + this program was "PwM". The second reason is that it's shorter. + +- It's an absolute requirement to have fun while developing + code for this application. + + Michael Buesch |
