… but only for a single variable.
The guidelines already allowed declaring variables at the point of
initialization. But not making a function call to do that. Let's allow that
now. The existing style of declaring and initializing seperate is still
allowed, and whatever makes most sense should be used.
I have no idea if this is going to cause rendering problems, and it is fairly
hard to check. So let's just merge this, and if it github markdown processor
doesn't like it, revert.
Say that r should be declared at the top of the function.
Don't say that fixed buffers result in truncation, right after saying that they
must only be used if size is known.
Adjust order of examples to be consistent.
Primarily:
1. Mention that we prefer if return parameters carry "ret_" as prefix in
their name
2. Clarify that debug-level logging is always OK, and irrelevant to when
deciding whether a function is logging or non-logging.
It's not that I think that "hostname" is vastly superior to "host name". Quite
the opposite — the difference is small, and in some context the two-word version
does fit better. But in the tree, there are ~200 occurrences of the first, and
>1600 of the other, and consistent spelling is more important than any particular
spelling choice.
@bertob wants us to be strict here, and only have one "#" header per
markdown file, and use "##" (or "###", …) for all others. Interestingly,
we mostly got this right already, but this fixes a few cases where this
wasn't correct.
