Reported 2009-12-08 19:40:36 PST

This is a bug report to make the following changes and clarifications to the coding style guidelines: (1) Add this to the guidelines: Do not use statements of the form "using std:foo" in implementation files. Use "using namespace std" instead. (The script currently enforces this rule, but for header files and not just implementation files.) (2) Clarify that the rule to put "using namespace" statements near the beginning of a file applies only to implementation files. (It currently applies also to header files.) Also, strengthen the rule so it applies to all "using" statements in implementation files and not just "using namespace" statements. (The above is excerpted from an e-mail to the webkit-dev list -- linked to by the URL for this report.)

Created attachment 44509 [details] Proposed patch Changes made as reported. Also, all the "using" statement style guidelines now lead with "In header files" or "In implementation files," etc. so it is immediately obvious what types of files each rule applies to.

I think the use of the verb "include" here is strange. I think it should be "add" or "import" instead.
