Bug 91470 – [EFL] Replace 0 by NULL in public headers documentation

• Component: WebKit EFL
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Chris Dumez]

It was discussed on the mailing list that NULL was more appropriate than 0 in public WebKit-EFL and WebKit2-EFL headers, since those are C headers.

Patch

I had to patch the style checking script as well because it would not recognize our header files as being C files and it would complain if we use NULL in them.

[Gyuyoung Kim]

Though we decide to stop to land big coding style change with kubo anymore, EFL folks decides to change one more thing as below,

http://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-efl/2012-July/000236.html

If possible, I still think we should not change big coding style change anymore. But, this patch needs to be landed.

So, informal rs+ on my side.

Christophe, if this patch is landed, please update this new coding style to WebKit EFL coding style wiki page as well.
