jwe,
What do you think about using the spaced out style for function
declarations which return a pointer object?
For example:
corefcn/mexproto.h:78:extern OCTINTERP_API const char *mexFunctionName (void);
I think this would be clearer if it were written as
extern OCTINTERP_API const char * mexFunctionName (void);
This would also be in keeping with our guidelines for declaring functions
which says that the return type should appear alone on the first line
followed by the name of the function and the list of arguments.
extern OCTINTERP_API const char *
mexFunctionName (void)
{
...
}
