C Coding Style

Table of Content

Use ANSI C or C99 without extension.

Indents using tabs and tabs are 4 characters.

Line length MUST be BELOW 80 colummns.

Comments use /* ... */ not //

Be aware that comments should be used only when it’s necessary, code must always be self documented.

{ and } are always, ALWAYS, on their own line.

if (my_func() < 0)
{
    (...)
}

Use space after: if, switch, case, for, do, while.

But not with: sizeof, typeof, alignof, __attribute__.
