Re: [trinity-devel] Codebase formatting discussion

First of all: I was in earlier days very busy, so I did not manage to follow and respond to the debate on coding style. Now I will try gradually respond to individual discussed cases.

By this I mean that each 'case' consider as block => each case should to have brackets, including 'default': do_something(); switch(foo) { case bar: { a=1; break; } case baz: { a=2; ...long case block... c=4; break; } case asd: { a=3; break; } default: { a=0; } } do_something_else(); The advantage is that regardless of the size of the 'case' is easily traceable beginning of the block => editor can be used to trace paired brackets. With this would also not need white space between each 'case'. By the way, I wont give white space anyway. :)
