What formatting style do we want for non-trivial lambdas in GCC sources?
I'm thinking the most consistent choice would be
auto l = [&] (parms) // space between ] (
{ // brace on new line, indented two spaces
return stuff;
};
Sure, why not. Consistency is what matters. Thus far we seem
to have been very inconsistent. ;)
By default, recent emacs lines up the { with the previous line, like an
in-class function definition; I talked it into the above indentation with
(defun lambda-offset (elem)
(if (assq 'inline-open c-syntactic-context) '+ 0))
(add-to-hook 'c++-mode-hook '(c-set-offset 'inlambda 'lambda-offset))
I think we probably want the same formatting for lambdas in function
argument lists, e.g.
algorithm ([] (parms)
{
return foo;
});
And what about lambdas in conditions:
if (foo ()
&& [&] (params) mutable
{
return 42;
} ())
should the { go just below [?
I think we don't want the { to go below the [ in general; that was the old
emacs default behavior, and it produced lambda bodies with excessive
indentation.
With my adjustment above, emacs indents the { two spaces from the &&, which
seems a bit arbitrary but reasonable.
Fair enough, I think that's better.
I suppose we should add a note wrt lambdas to
https://gcc.gnu.org/codingconventions.html#Cxx_Conventions
Indeed, that's my goal.
Looking through the various lambdas already in the compiler, I see a
good number already follow my suggested indentation, but a large
majority omit the space between ] and (, so maybe we don't want it?
