First, there have been discussions on devel@ about code formatting tools. Sebastian has posted a configuration for the indent program but offhand I don't know where that is. It may be in the documentation. For indent to move forward from here, its impact on the code in a directory that is thought to follow the RTEMS style well would need to be evaluated. Do the rules need to be tweaked to avoid changes? Is the source code actually just not in conformance with published rules? The process here is to evaluate the difference between tool output and existing code and work to close the delta by tweaking rules and fixing code. The end is expected to be that there are a few places where the tool can't produce RTEMS style and we have to discuss adopting something the tool can produce. I don't recall if Sebastian evaluated the llvm formatter and created a configuration for it. In this case, creating a configuration for this tool before evaluating the difference in output would be the path forward. If this formatter is better, then I would like to see an RTEMS style added to their options. With either tool, a factor is integrating it into the development process. I'm not sure what a GSoC project would do about this. So there are two potential projects here. My question is not conflict on project choice, it is whether either is an appropriate GSoC project. With the shorter time frame, I think the scope of the project is in the right ballpark. Is there enough coding? I don't know. --joel > > On Mon, 15 Mar 2021 at 09:45, Ida Delphine <idad...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Umm...did you bring up a discussion regarding this project earlier? > > > > On Mon, 15 Mar 2021, 8:10 am Ayushman Mishra, <ayushvidush...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> > >> AYUSHMAN MISHRA > >> > >> Hello Ida delphini AYUSHMAN here , Can you please select any other > project for gsoc as I am also currently working on proposal for the same > project > >> https://devel.rtems.org/ticket/3860 for gsoc 2021 > > > > _______________________________________________ > > devel mailing list > > devel@rtems.org > > http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list > devel@rtems.org > http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel >
