I have been discussing the best means of moving the style project forward with Andrew off list. He and I are both satisfied with the C style currently in src/*.c and src/*.h that was created with uncrustify and our current uncrustify.cfg file. In addition, everybody else seems satisfied with the code style in src. Thus, we have decided it is time to expand this styling effort to all our C source.
I will implement this (probably over the next few days) by registering our C source code in scripts/style_source.sh and run that script with the --apply option. I will probably divide up the work into 4 or 5 chunks (all C code in libs, include, bindings, examples, etc.). Before committing each chunk, I plan to test that (a) the non-white space chances look reasonable (using svn diff -x -w), and (b) they styled results produce good noninteractive and interactive test results. Assuming the styling of all our C code turns up no showstopper issues with uncrustify, then Andrew plans to follow up by expanding our C++ code styling (beyond what has already been done in bindings/c++) to all our C++ code.
