These are the general coding style rules for Taler.
* Baseline rules are to follow GNU guidelines, modified or extended
by the GNUnet style: https://gnunet.org/style
Naming conventions:
===================
* include files (very similar to GNUnet):
+ if installed, must start with "taler_" (exception: platform.h),
and MUST live in src/include/
+ if NOT installed, must NOT start with "taler_" and
MUST NOT live in src/include/ and
SHOULD NOT be included from outside of their own directory
+ end in "_lib" for "simple" libraries
+ end in "_plugin" for plugins
+ end in "_service" for libraries accessing a service, i.e. the mint
* binaries:
+ taler-mint-xxx: mint programs
+ taler-merchant-xxx: merchant programs (demos)
+ taler-wallet-xxx: wallet programs
+ plugins should be libtaler_plugin_xxx_yyy.so: plugin yyy for API xxx
+ libtalerxxx: library for API xxx
* logging
+ tools use their full name in GNUNET_log_setup
(i.e. 'taler-mint-keyup') and log using plain 'GNUNET_log'.
+ pure libraries (without associated service) use 'GNUNET_log_from'
with the component set to their library name (without lib or '.so'),
which should also be their directory name (i.e. 'util')
+ plugin libraries (without associated service) use 'GNUNET_log_from'
with the component set to their type and plugin name (without lib or '.so'),
which should also be their directory name (i.e. 'mintdb-postgres')
+ libraries with associated service) use 'GNUNET_log_from'
with the name of the service, which should also be their
directory name (i.e. 'mint')
* configuration
+ same rules as for GNUnet
* exported symbols
+ must start with TALER_[SUBSYSTEMNAME]_ where SUBSYSTEMNAME
MUST match the subdirectory of src/ in which the symbol is defined
+ from libtalerutil start just with TALER_, without subsystemname
+ if scope is ONE binary and symbols are not in a shared library,
use binary-specific prefix (such as TMH = taler-mint-httpd) for
globals, possibly followed by the subsystem (TMH_DB_xxx).
* structs:
+ structs that are 'packed' and do not contain pointers and are
thus suitable for hashing or similar operations are distinguished
by adding a "P" at the end of the name. (NEW) Note that this
convention does not hold for the GNUnet-structs (yet).
+ structs that are used with a purpose for signatures, additionally
get an "S" at the end of the name.
* private (library-internal) symbols (including structs and macros)
+ must not start with TALER_ or any other prefix
* testcases
+ must be called "test_module-under-test_case-description.c"
* performance tests
+ must be called "perf_module-under-test_case-description.c"
