Yes, I thought so (this is the main and *valid* argument people argue for 8 "space" indents). > If C++ is inherently more complex then perhaps we should require It might as well be more complex, but this is a whole different issue. It may typically be more "verbose" though - in terms of length of symbols and identifiers. It's a matter of style (not that any style in C++ is better than any other). > 12-character or 16-character indents for C++ Yeah. At least then nobody has to bother maintaining the c++ portion of cstyle, as nobody is going to use it ;-) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ tools-discuss mailing list tools-discuss@opensolaris.org
