# Coding Guidelines
All new code **must** follow the following coding guidelines. \
If you make changes in a file that still uses another coding style, make sure that you follow these guidelines for your changes. \
For programming languages other than C++ (e.g. JavaScript) used in this repository and submodules, unless otherwise specified, coding guidelines listed here applies as much as possible.
**Note 1:** I will not take your head if you forget and use another style. However, most probably the request will be delayed until you fix your coding style.
**Note 2:** You can use the `uncrustify` program/tool to clean up any source file. Use it with the `uncrustify.cfg` configuration file found in the root folder.

**Note 3:** There is also a style for QtCreator but it doesn't cover all cases. In QtCreator `Tools->Options...->C++->Code Style->Import...` and choose the `codingStyleQtCreator.xml` file found in the root folder.

### 7. Header inclusion order ###
The headers should be placed in the following group order:
1. Module header (in .cpp)
2. C++ Standard Library headers
3. System headers
4. Boost library headers
5. Libtorrent headers
6. Qt headers
7. qBittorrent's own headers, starting from the *base* headers.
## 7. Header inclusion order
The headers should be ordered alphabetically within each group.
If there are conditionals for the same header group, then put them at the bottom of the respective group.

7. qBittorrent's own headers, starting from the *base* headers.
The headers should be ordered alphabetically within each group. \
If there are conditionals for the same header group, then put them at the bottom of the respective group. \
If there are conditionals that contain headers from several different header groups, then put them above the "qBittorrent's own headers" group.
One exception is the header containing the library version (for example, QtGlobal), this particular header isn't constrained by the aforementioned order.

* **auto** keyword
We allow the use of the **auto** keyword only where it is strictly necessary
(for example, to declare a lambda object, etc.), or where it **enhances** the readability of the code.
Declarations for which one can gather enough information about the object interface (type) from its name
or the usage pattern (an iterator or a loop variable are good examples of clear patterns)
or the right part of the expression nicely fit here.<br/>
<br/>
When weighing whether to use an auto-typed variable please think about potential reviewers of your code,
who will read it as a plain diff (on github.com, for instance). Please make sure that such reviewers can
understand the code completely and without excessive effort.<br/>

Some valid use cases:

void doSomethingWithList(const List &list)

// we don't know item type here so we use 'auto' keyword
