I realize formatting style varies from person to person and from
organization to organization. Nevertheless some programming language
communities have definite community standards about how certain language
constructs should be formatted. For example, it seems universal in this
community to name variables This_Way.
When it comes to calling subprograms I've seen some sources that put a
space between the name of the subprogram and the argument list.
My_Procedure (X, Y, Z);
A := My_Function (B);
When wrapping such calls the entire argument list is moved down to the
next line.
My_Procedure
(Very_Long, Argument_List, With_Many, Arguments);
In other communities (C/C++) it is more common to leave the space out
and also to leave the opening '(' on the same line as the procedure
name.
I'm wondering how universal the above style is among Ada programmers. In
other words: would it be desirable for me to adopt it as part of my
personal style guide?
Peter
P.S. Is there an accepted indentation depth among Ada programmers? I've
seen three spaces in several places and I notice both Ada-mode in Emacs
and GPS use three spaces by default.
