CodingStandardExplanation

The Mobius coding standard is derived from the UCD coding standard, originally developed by Joe Kiniry while at Caltech in 1996, then updated while he worked at Radboud University Nijmegen from 2002--2004. This standard has influenced the programming standards of many other research groups and organizations, including Sun Microsystems.

WikiInclude(CodingStandardDescription)

The base Mobius coding standard is codified in as a CheckStyle style and an Eclipse code formatter configuration. Variant coding styles, specific to various projects, groups, development teams, and sites, are derived from this base standard. They are also codified using CheckStyle and Eclipse. Example moderate_ and rigorous_ standards are provided with the PVE, as discussed in Metrics.

While not all source for all subsystems has been checked against a specific coding standard as of yet, the majority of Mobius-specific PVE code has been checked against one of three different standards. As PVE development continues, and the Mobius development process evolves and becomes more codified within the PVE, new and existing subsystems are checked against new and existing styles.
