! Note: These rules are applied to all files in plugin-sdk repository, except third-party modules (likeinjector) files.

Every header (.h/.hpp) and source (.cpp) file should start with a comment:

/*    Plugin-SDK ($GAME_NAME$) $SHARED$ $FILE_TYPE$ file    Authors: GTA Community. See more here    https://github.com/DK22Pac/plugin-sdk    Do not delete this comment block. Respect others' work!*/

Where

• GAME_NAME - game to which the file belongs - 'Grand Theft Auto San Andreas', 'Grand Theft Auto Vice City' or 'Grand Theft Auto 3'. 'Grand Theft Auto' for shared files.
• SHARED - optional, 'SHARED' for shared files.
• FILE_TYPE - 'source' for.cpp files, 'header' for.h and.hpp files.

Don't use tabs! Spaces only.

-Wrongstruct MyStruct {unsigned intm_nVariable;floatm_fVariable;};

+Correctstruct MyStruct {    unsigned int m_nVariable;    float        m_fVariable;};

Don't use special MS types, like__int8,__int64.

Don't usestdint aliases, likeint8_t,int64_t.

When you need a 64-bit integer variable, uselong long orint64.

When you need a 32-bit boolean variable, usebool32.

-Wrongstruct MyStruct {    int8_t       m_nInt8Variable;    __int64      m_nInt64Variable;    unsigned int m_bBoolVariable;};

+Correctstruct MyStruct {    char   m_nInt8Variable;    int64  m_nInt64Variable;    bool32 m_bBoolVariable;};

Use specialAPI types only when a code (or structure) directly uses thatAPI (or related to thatAPI).

For example, if a code usesWindows API functionality, it's allowed to use (but not necessarily) such aliases asBYTE,DWORD, etc.

Same forRenderWare API and its base types:RwChar,RwInt32,RwReal, etc.

Don't useC-style casting. Usestatic_cast orreinterpret_cast.

-Wrongm_vecPos.x = (short)(coord * 8.0f);

+Correctm_vecPos.x = static_cast<short>(coord * 8.0f);

It's recommended that all text files in the repository end with a newline character.
