Although I agree it'd be nice if GCC would flag ints used as bools
(and I believe that splint WILL flag this), I disagree strongly with:
if (foo == false) {...};
Over
if (!(foo)) {..};
Actually, I'd rather see:
if (!foo) ...
First, == false or == true is a chance to say = false or = true by
mistake.
Second, if (!is_whatever) is a lot more Englishy than is_whatever ==
false.
Third, the second is supported if we also add a standard that says all
booleans have a verb, such is "is_standalone" or "has_memory_cache"
rather than "standalone" or "memory_cache". The verb makes it clear
it's a boolean.
Thoughts? Are you persuadable?
