Creating a coding standards document @BartvanIngenSchenau there's no reason why you need them for C++, or why you don't need similar sections for other languages - you can make a mess out of C# or JS or .. well, anything. All languages have 'features that can be misused'. Best to train your devs to be good at their job instead of filling the standards document with "how not to code" mini tutorials. |

Coding style (do more, then simplify) shock, horror... you have to think and design before coding.. I thought that approach went out in the 90s :-) |

Is the algorithm more important than the programming language? and in fact this is what happens in a lot of industries, games for example have a lot of Lua code that glues C++ code together for both performance and productivity. |

How should I implement code review in this situation? trac / redmine - they do almost exactly the same things... redmine just looks prettier :) |

What is the best way to prove that in-code documentation is greater than extensive external documentation? screenshots aren't exactly dev documentation, but essential for user docs. Maybe they form part of internal training, and for that - the dev counts as a user. though I have worked with some complex packages where a screenshot would have helped tell me what it was supposed to do. |

What is the best way to prove that in-code documentation is greater than extensive external documentation? and I've looked at 5 million loc programs and thought.. "where's the architectural diagram?" |

How much documentation is enough? or in a more common quote: Make things as simple as possible, but not simpler - Einstein. |
