[Qemu-devel] [RFC] CODING_STYLE: Clarify style for enum and function typ


From: Peter Maydell
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [RFC] CODING_STYLE: Clarify style for enum and function type names
Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2012 20:29:49 +0000

Clarify that enum type names and function type names should follow
the CamelCase style used for structured type names.

During a conversation on IRC with Anthony, I realised that the coding
standard isn't entirely clear about what convention should be followed
for enum and function types. This patch resolves that by saying they
should be CamelCase like structured type names, based on Anthony's
suggestion. I've tagged this as an RFC in case anybody would rather
we went the other way instead...

 and is therefore likely to be changed.
