Hello hackers!

General remarks about contributing
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Contributions to the libnfc are welcome!
|
|
Here are some directions to get you started:
|
|
|
|
1. Follow style conventions
|
|
The source code of the library trend to follow some conventions so that it
|
|
is consistent in style and thus easier to read.
|
|
Look around and respect the same style.
|
|
Don't use tabs. Increment unit is two spaces.
|
|
|
|
2. Chase warnings: no warning should be introduced by your changes
|
|
Depending what you touch, you can check with:
|
|
2.1 When using autotools
|
|
$ autoreconf -Wall -vis
|
|
2.2 When compiling
|
|
$ export CFLAGS="-Wall -g -O2 -Wextra -pipe -funsigned-char -fstrict-aliasing \
|
|
-Wchar-subscripts -Wundef -Wshadow -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings -Wunused \
|
|
-Wuninitialized -Wpointer-arith -Wredundant-decls -Winline -Wformat \
|
|
-Wformat-security -Wswitch-enum -Winit-self -Wmissing-include-dirs \
|
|
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wold-style-definition \
|
|
-Wbad-function-cast -Wnested-externs -Wmissing-declarations"
|
|
$ ./configure
|
|
$ make
|
|
2.3 When Debianizing
|
|
$ lintian *deb
|
|
|
|
3. Preserve cross-platform compatility
|
|
The source code should remain compilable across various platforms,
|
|
including some you probably cannot test alone so keep it in mind.
|
|
Supported platforms:
|
|
- Linux
|
|
- FreeBSD
|
|
- Mac OS X
|
|
- Windows with Mingw
