Has anyone tried enforcing a variable-reference-per-line limit? Eg. if the limit is 4, then these two lines equally hit the limit: foo = bar(baz, qux) myCl

Has anyone tried enforcing a variable-reference-per-line limit? Eg. if the limit is 4, then these two lines equally hit the limit:
foo = bar(baz, qux)
myClassInstance.someWritableVar = lib.someFunction(param1, MyOtherClass.constants.FOO)
The second line is well over 80 chars, but may be as understandable as the first.
- kiruwa 10y agoIt effectively limits all functions that return a value to 2 parameters. I rarely go over that, but it would seem a bit arbitrary to bump into.
- to3m 10y agoYou can press the Return key? :) const uint64_t *p=bsearch(&ref->u, df->file_offsets, df->num_file_offsets, sizeof df->file_offsets[0], &CompareU64s); That's from emacs. It's a bit hit or miss whether editors do something nice like the above, or just indent the arguments by one stop, but other options seem to be fairly rare. I generally have one function call per line for ease of debugging. Nothing worse than having to do a fiddly step in/step out dance when you're trying to think about what's going on. But it's also good for keeping on top of line lengths too.
- kiruwa 10y agoEh, seems fine, just seems odd to be forced to do that for a three-argument function.
