<div class="textblock"><h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md36"></a>
Background</h1>
<p>Here we document style rules for C usage in the gRPC Core library.</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md37"></a>
General</h1>
<ul>
<li>Layout rules are defined by clang-format, and all code should be passed through clang-format. A (docker-based) script to do so is included in <a href="../tools/distrib/clang_format_code.sh">tools/distrib/clang_format_code.sh</a>.</li>
</ul>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md38"></a>
Header Files</h1>
<ul>
<li>Public header files (those in the include/grpc tree) should compile as pedantic C89.</li>
<li>Public header files should be includable from C++ programs. That is, they should include the following: <div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#ifdef __cplusplus</span></div>
<div class="line"><span class="keyword">extern</span> <span class="stringliteral">&quot;C&quot;</span> {</div>
<div class="line"><span class="preprocessor"># endif</span></div>
<div class="line"> </div>
<div class="line"><span class="comment">/* ... body of file ... */</span></div>
<div class="line"> </div>
<div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#ifdef __cplusplus</span></div>
<div class="line">}</div>
<div class="line"><span class="preprocessor"># endif</span></div>
</div><!-- fragment --></li>
<li>Header files should be self-contained and end in .h.</li>
<li><p class="startli">All header files should have a <code>#define</code> guard to prevent multiple inclusion. To guarantee uniqueness they should be based on the file's path.</p>
<p class="startli">For public headers: <code><a class="el" href="grpc_8h.html">include/grpc/grpc.h</a></code><code>GRPC_GRPC_H</code></p>
<p class="startli">For private headers: <code>src/core/lib/channel/channel_stack.h</code><code>GRPC_CORE_LIB_CHANNEL_CHANNEL_STACK_H</code></p>
</li>
</ul>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md39"></a>
Variable Initialization</h1>
<p>When declaring a (non-static) pointer variable, always initialize it to <code>NULL</code>. Even in the case of static pointer variables, it's recommended to explicitly initialize them to <code>NULL</code>.</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md40"></a>
C99 Features</h1>
<ul>
<li>Variable sized arrays are not allowed.</li>
<li>Do not use the 'inline' keyword.</li>
<li>Flexible array members are allowed (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_array_member">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_array_member</a>).</li>
</ul>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md41"></a>
Comments</h1>
<p>Within public header files, only <code>/* */</code> comments are allowed.</p>
<p>Within implementation files and private headers, either single line <code>//</code> or multi line <code>/* */</code> comments are allowed. Only one comment style per file is allowed however (i.e. if single line comments are used anywhere within a file, ALL comments within that file must be single line comments).</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md42"></a>
Symbol Names</h1>
<ul>
<li>Non-static functions must be prefixed by <code>grpc_</code></li>
<li>Static functions must <em>not</em> be prefixed by <code>grpc_</code></li>
<li>Typenames of <code>struct</code>s , <code>union</code>s, and <code>enum</code>s must be prefixed by <code>grpc_</code> if they are declared in a header file. They must not be prefixed by <code>grpc_</code> if they are declared in a source file.</li>
<li>Enumeration values and <code>#define</code> names must be uppercase. All other values must be lowercase.</li>
<li>Enumeration values or <code>#define</code> names defined in a header file must be prefixed with <code>GRPC_</code> (except for <code>#define</code> macros that are being used to substitute functions; those should follow the general rules for functions). Enumeration values or <code>#define</code>s defined in source files must not be prefixed with <code>GRPC_</code>.</li>
<li>Multiple word identifiers use underscore as a delimiter, <em>never</em> camel case. E.g. <code>variable_name</code>.</li>
</ul>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="autotoc_md43"></a>
Functions</h1>
<ul>
<li>The use of <a href="http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/atexit.3.html"><code>atexit()</code></a> is in forbidden in libgrpc. </li>
</ul>
