Naming conventions:
include files:
- _lib: library without need for a process
- _service: library that needs a service process
- _plugin: plugin definition
- _protocol: structs used in network protocol
- exceptions:
* gnunet_config.h --- generated
* platform.h --- first included
* plibc.h --- external library
* gnunet_common.h --- fundamental routines
* gnunet_directories.h --- generated
* gettext.h --- external library
configuration:
- paths (that are substituted in all filenames) are in PATHS (have as few as possible)
- globals for the daemon are in [gnunetd] (for now, have as few as possible!)
- all options for a particular module (src/MODULE) are under [MODULE]
- options for a plugin of a module are under [MODULE-PLUGINNAME]
- options only for debugging / testing / profiling are under [TESTING],
together with the options for the testing module itself
exported symbols:
- must start with "GNUNET_modulename_" and be defined in "modulename.c"
- exceptions: those defined in gnunet_common.h
private (library-internal) symbols (including structs & macros):
- must NOT start with any prefix
- must not be exported in a way that linkers could use them or
other libraries might see them via headers; they must be either
declared/defined in C source files or in headers that are in
the respective directory under src/modulename/ and NEVER be
declared in src/include/.
testcases:
- must be called "test_module-under-test_case-description.c"
- "case-description" maybe omitted if there is only one test
performance tests:
- must be called "perf_module-under-test_case-description.c"
- "case-description" maybe omitted if there is only one performance test
src/ directories:
- gnunet-NAME: end-user applications (i.e., gnunet-search, gnunet-arm)
- gnunet-service-NAME: service processes with accessor library (i.e., gnunet-service-arm)
- libgnunetNAME: accessor library (_service.h-header) or standalone library (_lib.h-header)
- gnunet-daemon-NAME: daemon process without accessor library (i.e., gnunet-daemon-hostlist) and no GNUnet management port
- libgnunet_plugin_DIR_NAME: loadable plugins (i.e., libgnunet_plugin_transport_tcp)
Minimum file-sharing system (in order of dependency):
gnunet-service-arm
gnunet-service-transport
gnunet-service-core
gnunet-daemon-hostlist
gnunet-daemon-topology
gnunet-service-statistics
gnunet-service-datastore
gnunet-service-datacache
gnunet-service-dht
gnunet-service-fs (or just lib?)
Coding style:
- GNU guidelines apply
- declare only one variable per line, so
int i;
int j;
instead of
int i,j;
Build-system:
If you have code that is likely not to compile or build rules you might want to not
trigger for most developers, use "if HAVE_EXPERIMENTAL" in your Makefile.am. Then
it is OK to (temporarily) add non-compiling (or known-to-not-port) code.
If you want to compile all testcases but NOT run them, run configure with the
--enable-test-suppression option.
If you want to obtain code coverage results, run configure with the
--enable-coverage option and run the coverage.sh script in contrib/.
