Conan for New GCC ABI

How to manage the GCC >= 5 ABI

When Conan creates the default profile the first time it runs, it adjusts the compiler.libcxx setting to libstdc++ for backwards compatibility. However, if you are using GCC >= 5 your compiler is likely to be using the new CXX11 ABI by default (libstdc++11).

If you want Conan to use the new ABI, edit the default profile at ~/.conan/profiles/default adjusting compiler.libcxx=libstdc++11 or override this setting in the profile you are using.

# Linux
vim ~/.conan/profiles/default

[settings]
os=Linux
os_build=Linux
arch=x86_64
arch_build=x86_64
compiler=gcc
compiler.version=9
compiler.libcxx=libstdc++11
build_type=Release

C++ Naming Styles

C++ General Naming Rules

For the purposes of the naming rules below, a "word" is anything that you would write in English without internal spaces. This includes abbreviations, such as acronyms and initialisms. For names written in mixed case (also sometimes referred to as "camel case" or "Pascal case"), in which the first letter of each word is capitalized, prefer to capitalize abbreviations as single words, e.g., StartRpc() rather than StartRPC(), Id rather than ID, UtcTimestamp rather than UTCTimestamp.

C++ Variable Names (all kinds of variables including but not limited to followings: global, local, const, static, member, parameters)

The names of variables (including function parameters) and data members are all lowercase, with underscores between words, i.e. snake case => snake_case

For simplicity and easy memorization of the naming rule, prefix or suffix should not be added to the variable names for different type of variables. For examples, the followings naming styles are not preferred: leading "k" in constant variables, prefix "g_" in global variables, trailing underscore in data member variables. This also makes easier to move variables to different scopes without renaming them.

C++ Type Names (all kinds of types including but not limited to followings: struct, class, enum, typedef, using alias)

Type names start with a capital letter and have a capital letter for each new word, with no underscores, i.e. camel case => CamelCase

C++ Function Names (function and member method)

Function names start with a capital letter and have a capital letter for each new word, with no underscores, i.e. camel case => CamelCase

C++ Namespace Names (namespace)

The names of namespaces are all lowercase, with underscores between words, i.e. snake case => snake_case

C++ Macro Names (#define, including but not limited to followings: macro constant, macro function)

Macros should not be used. However, if they are absolutely needed, then they should be named with all capitals and underscores, i.e. macro case => MACRO_CASE

C++ Enumerator Member Names (enum member)

The names of enumerator members are all lowercase, with underscores between words, i.e. snake case => snake_case

C++ Main File Name (file containing the main() entry function)

Main file name must have the same name as the final program binary name which should be all lowercase, with underscores between words, i.e. snake case => snake_case

C++ Class File Names (file containing a single class declaration and/or definition)

Class file names must have the same name as the single class name it contains which should start with a capital letter and have a capital letter for each new word, with no underscores, i.e. camel case => CamelCase

C++ Template Parameter Names

Template parameters should follow the naming style for their category: type template parameters should follow the rules for type names, and non-type template parameters should follow the rules for variable names.

C++ Unit Test Test Suite Names

Unit test test suite names must follow the nameing convention of type/class names with "Test" as postfix, i.e. camel case => CamelCaseTest

C++ Unit Test Test Case Names

Unit test test case names must follow the nameing convention of function names, i.e. camel case => CamelCase

C++ Benchmark Function Names

Benchmark Function names must follow the nameing convention of function names with "Benchmark" as postfix, i.e. camel case => CamelCaseBenchmark

C++ Code Formatting Styles

C++ Indentation

Use 4 spaces at a time for indentation. Do not use tabs in code. You should set your editor to emit spaces when you hit the tab key.

C++ Comments

Offset by exactly 1 space from the comment mark (e.g. //, /// or /*).

/// Structure representing a UTC date
struct UtcDate

C++ Alignment of Comments

Offset by exactly 1 space from the end of longest line to be aligned.

constexpr uint32_t utc_date_null_value = UINT32_MAX; ///< null value for UtcDate
constexpr uint16_t year_null_value = UINT16_MAX;     ///< null value for year
constexpr uint8_t month_null_value = UINT8_MAX;      ///< null value for month
constexpr uint8_t day_null_value = UINT8_MAX;        ///< null value for day

C++ Integer Literal

Integer literal https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/integer_literal

Fundamental types https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/types

Signed 8-bit integer (int8_t or char): 0 (no suffix)
Unsigned 8-bit integer (uint8_t or unsigned char): 0U (suffix with U)
Signed 16-bit integer (int16_t or short): 0 (no suffix)
Unsigned 16-bit integer (uint16_t or unsigned short): 0U (suffix with U)
Signed 32-bit integer (int32_t or long): 0L (suffix with L)
Unsigned 32-bit integer (uint32_t or unsigned long): 0UL (suffix with UL)
Signed 64-bit integer (int64_t or long long): 0LL (suffix with LL)
Unsigned 64-bit integer (uint64_t or unsigned long long): 0ULL (suffix with ULL)

C++ Include Header Ordering

Google C++ Style Guide: Names and Order of Includes https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Names_and_Order_of_Includes

Include header ordering should follow above "Google C++ Style Guide: Names and Order of Includes". Except "All of a project's header files should be listed as descendants of the project's source directory without use of UNIX directory aliases . (the current directory) or .. (the parent directory)." as its useful for identifying same project headers.

Include headers in the following order: Related header, C system headers, C++ standard library headers, other libraries' headers, your project's headers. Separate each non-empty group with one blank line. Within each section the includes should be ordered alphabetically.

C system headers (e.g. <stdlib.h>) and C++ standard library headers (e.g. <cstdlib>) must be enclosed by angle brackets Other headers (e.g. "boost/asio.hpp") must be enclosed by double quotes

In dir/foo.cc or dir/foo_test.cc, whose main purpose is to implement or test the stuff in dir2/foo2.h, order your includes as follows:

dir2/foo2.h.
A blank line
C system headers (more precisely: headers in angle brackets with the .h extension), e.g., <unistd.h>, <stdlib.h>.
A blank line
C++ standard library headers (without file extension), e.g., <algorithm>, <cstddef>.
A blank line
Other libraries' .h files.
A blank line
Your project's .h files.

For example, the includes in google-awesome-project/src/foo/internal/fooserver.cc might look like this:

#include "foo/server/fooserver.h"

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>

#include <string>
#include <vector>

#include "base/basictypes.h"
#include "base/commandlineflags.h"

#include "foo/server/bar.h"
