Part of the discussion on whitelisting for nxstyle went on on the Github PR: https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/pull/569
To draw a conclusion from my side, I withdraw my supposal, because of "no metadata in source files". I will have a look at the .nxignore solution and if I find time I will file a PR. But this can happen the next weekend the earliest. So if one would like to take over this task earlier, please give notice. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Gregory Nutt [mailto:spudan...@gmail.com] Gesendet: Sonntag, 15.

I don't see that. Modifications to the white list file, whatever it is called, would be very rare. Only when a new non-compliant name is added which should be never. We should not permit people to create new non-compliant names. The existing non-compliant names are a consequence of names defined in other standards and by chip manufacturers. If POSIX changes or if we add support for new chips, then and only then would the whitelists change. I see no can. I see no worms.
