@chapter Coding Guidelines
@itemize @bullet
@item
We use @uref{http://www.bitkeeper.com/, BitKeeper} for source management.
@item
You should use the @strong{MySQL} 4.0 source for all developments.
@item
If you have any questions about the @strong{MySQL} source, you can post these
to @email{dev-public@@mysql.com} and we will answer them. Please
remember to not use this internal email list in public!
@item
Try to write code in a lot of black boxes that can be reused or use at
least a clean, easy to change interface.
@item
Reuse code; There is already a lot of algorithms in MySQL for list handling,
queues, dynamic and hashed arrays, sorting, etc. that can be reused.
@item
Use the @code{my_*} functions like @code{my_read()}/@code{my_write()}/
@code{my_malloc()} that you can find in the @code{mysys} library instead
of the direct system calls; This will make your code easier to debug and
more portable.
@item
Try to always write optimized code, so that you don't have to
go back and rewrite it a couple of months later. It's better to
spend 3 times as much time designing and writing an optimal function than
having to do it all over again later on.
@item
Avoid CPU wasteful code, even where it does not matter, so that
you will not develop sloppy coding habits.
@item
If you can write it in fewer lines, do it (as long as the code will not
be slower or much harder to read).
@item
Don't use two commands on the same line.
@item
Do not check the same pointer for @code{NULL} more than once.
@item
Use long function and variable names in English. This makes your code
easier to read.
@item
Use @code{my_var} as opposed to @code{myVar} or @code{MyVar} (@samp{_}
rather than dancing SHIFT to seperate words in identifiers).
@item
Think assembly - make it easier for the compiler to optimize your code.
@item
Comment your code when you do something that someone else may think
is not ``trivial''.
@item
Use @code{libstring} functions (in the @file{strings} directory)
instead of standard @code{libc} string functions whenever possible.
@item
Avoid using @code{malloc()} (its REAL slow); For memory allocations
that only need to live for the lifetime of one thread, one should use
@code{sql_alloc()} instead.
@item
Before making big design decisions, please first post a summary of
what you want to do, why you want to do it, and how you plan to do
it. This way we can easily provide you with feedback and also
easily discuss it thoroughly if some other developer thinks there is better
way to do the same thing!
@item
Class names start with a capital letter.
@item
Structure types are @code{typedef}'ed to an all-caps identifier.
@item
Any @code{#define}'s are in all-caps.
@item
Matching @samp{@{} are in the same column.
@item
Put the @samp{@{} after a @code{switch} on the same line, as this gives
better overall indentation for the switch statement:
@example
switch (arg) @{
@end example
@item
In all other cases, @samp{@{} and @samp{@}} should be on their own line, except
if there is nothing inside @samp{@{} and @samp{@}}.
@item
Have a space after @code{if}
@item
Put a space after @samp{,} for function arguments
@item
Functions return @samp{0} on success, and non-zero on error, so you can do:
@example
if(a() || b() || c()) @{ error("something went wrong"); @}
@end example
@item
Using @code{goto} is okay if not abused.
@item
Avoid default variable initalizations, use @code{LINT_INIT()} if the
compiler complains after making sure that there is really no way
the variable can be used uninitialized.
@item
Do not instantiate a class if you do not have to.
@item
Use pointers rather than array indexing when operating on strings.

Logic behind bulk insert optimisation is simple.
Instead of writing each key value to b-tree (that is to keycache, but
bulk insert code doesn't know about keycache) keys are stored in
balanced binary (red-black) tree, in memory. When this tree reaches its
memory limit it's writes all keys to disk (to keycache, that is). But
as key stream coming from the binary tree is already sorted inserting
goes much faster, all the necessary pages are already in cache, disk
access is minimized, etc.
