Java Style Guide

Basics

• No tabs
• "tab" == 4 spaces
• When relevant, follow mongo server rules: mongo server rules
• eclipse formatting file

Class Structure

• public static at top
• members at bottom
• members should start with _
• members should be package private by default
• do not use this unless absolutely needed

class Foo {
    static public final int CONSTANT = 5;
 
    public Foo(){
    }

    private int _member; 
}

Bracing

void foo(){
    if ( true ){
       print( "yay" );
    }
    else if ( true ){
       print( "boo" );
    }
    else {
       print( "zzz" );
    }
}
