Formating your class header…
September 12, 2009
This is more of a note to self about how to format a C++ header file based on what I think is important:
class MyClass
{
public:
<Public defined enums and constants>
public:
<Public variables OR Get/Set functions. Public variables are frowned upon anyways>
public:
<Public defined interfaces and constructors
private:
<Private variables>
private:
<Private functions>
};
The basic rules of thumb are:
- Public interfaces are on top because that is the first thing programmers reading your code want to know without scrolling down through the rest of the file.
- Protected interfaces follow
- Private interfaces are last (and often don’t change)
- Be consistent
- Use white spaces
- Split up constants, variables and interfaces with seperate “public/protected/privates”s
