Hi Chandni, Wanted to get some more info about what you're looking for here. Chetan sent out email July 10 with this text:
-------------------------------- Guys, Knowing that we all follow different coding conventions and we are now going to make a big announcement about Apex, it's a good idea to define code formatting standards which not only we will follow but ask even the outside contributors to follow. At the high level, what the common coding standard will give us are 2 things: 1. A warm feeling that code style is consistent. 2. Will not cause unnecessary change sets. Given that there are a bunch of different styles, please read up about those and make up your mind on which style you prefer. The link on Wikipedia is concise and short: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indent_style to help you get started. I also have a short survey for you to vote. Please vote for your style. If there is an absolute majority for a specific coding style, we will go with it. In other cases it will help in developing consensus. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/QQGCFW6 -------------------------------- and there were some followup messages. Do we want to pick one of the existing guides like: http://web.archive.org/web/20090911103851/http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConvTOC.doc.html http://google.github.io/styleguide/javaguide.html or are we looking to write an entirely new one for Apex based on the existing code base ? If we write a new one, do we want to put it in the code repo or on docs repo ? I'll post a followup to the list once I have a better idea of what you're thinking.
