Java Code Standards

Readability is rule of thumb.

Stack parameters:

// RIGHT
public View onCreateView(@NonNull LayoutInflater inflater,
                         @Nullable ViewGroup container,
                         @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    return LayoutInflater
            .from(getContext())
            .inflate(R.layout.seeding_form, container, false);
}

// AVOID
public View onCreateView(@NonNull LayoutInflater inflater, @Nullable ViewGroup container, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  return LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.seeding_form, container, false);
}

Naming Conventions:

• Any naming should have <= 3 words

BOOLEAN

isSelected  // RIGHT
setSelected // AVOID
selected

hasHeader   // RIGHT
withHeader  // AVOID
containHeader

LIST

List<Employee> employees;    // RIGHT
List<Employee> employeeList; // AVOID

FUNCTION

0. PARAMETERS

void setEmployee(Employee employee)() // RIGHT
void set(Employee e)()                // AVOID
void set(Employee employee)()

1. ON CLICK LISTENER

void onAcceptButton()// RIGHT
void acceptPressed() // AVOID

2. FOR-LOOP

for (Company company : companies) {}       // RIGHT
for (int i = 0; i < companies.size(); i++) // AVOID

IF ELSE / Ternary Operator

String greeting = isMorning // RIGHT
    ? "Good Morning"
    : "Good Night";

String greeting = "";      // AVOID
if (isMorning) {
    greeting = "Good Morning";
} else {
    greeting = "Good Night";
};

SWITCH CASE

1. Empty space in between cases.
2. Include every case.

// RIGHT
int getCalories() {    
    switch (breakfast) {
        case BACON:
            return 140;
        case EGG:   
            return 70;
        default:
            return 0;
    }
}

RESOURCES

STRINGS

// RIGHT
<plurals name="employees_size">
    <item quantity="one">%d employee</item>
    <item quantity="other">%d employees</item>
</plurals>
setText(getResources().getQuantityString(
    R.plurals.employees_size,
    employees.size(),
    employees.size()));

// AVOID
setText(employees.size()
    ? "1 employee"
    : employees.size() + " employees")
