Hi Nick
I heard there are someone using clang-format, but I haven't heard anyone being able to create a clang-format configuration that ensures 100% compliance.
Thus, I still recommend developers to memorize all style rules and ensure compliance the moment you type it.
I heard from a Google engineer that they use Eclipse to ensure Google code style compliance. I'm unsure whether it's possible with ndn-cxx rules.
ndnSIM has defined their rules in terms of a particular clang-format configuration, which could be a solution. However, relying on a tool as the rules is similar to defining a network protocol in terms of a specific implementation, which could cause inter-operability problems.
Yours, Junxiao

Junxiao,
In an attempt to smooth out style issues, I intend to use a formatter.
It appears that there is a well-known program, "clang-format", that does
this. Do you have any system that you use to format your code that I
should know about?
