I can agree with that it is often nicest to have all declarations at the beginning of a scope, but I don't think we should be so categoric that we compile with -Wdeclaration-after-statement. Sometimes, you get the nicest code by having declarations in the middle of scopes. At least we will have the option. Introducing an artificial level of indentation just because we need a new scope is IMO much uglier. / Martin -- My GIMP Blog: http://www.chromecode.com/ "Automatic tab style and removed tab title bar" _______________________________________________ Gegl-developer mailing list Gegl-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gegl-developer
