Description

Lots of template code has unnecessarily long and redundant references to simple variables that could be cleaned up to make the templates a lot less cluttered.

I'll post some specific examples in the comments section...

History

#1 Updated by John Diamond about 3 years ago

For example, see source:/templates/linux/kernel/api.h.tpl -

#ifndef <?php echo strtoupper( $this->_dg->linuxGet()->moduleNameGet() ); ?>API_H
#define <?php echo strtoupper( $this->_dg->linuxGet()->moduleNameGet() ); ?>API_H
// Maximum number of devices support
#define <?php echo strtoupper( $this->_dg->linuxGet()->moduleNameGet() ); ?>_DEVICES 16
// Driver name
#define <?php echo strtoupper( $this->_dg->linuxGet()->moduleNameGet() ); ?>_DRIVER_NAME "<?php echo strtoupper( $this->_dg->linuxGet()->moduleNameGet() ); ?>" 
// Driver version
#define <?php echo strtoupper( $this->_dg->linuxGet()->moduleNameGet() ); ?>_DRIVER_VERSION "v0.0.1-development"

This could be improved by exporting a variable before executing the template -

$MODULE_NAME = strtoupper( $this->_dg->linuxGet()->moduleNameGet() );

And the template would be a little more tidy:

#ifndef <?php echo $MODULE_NAME; ?>API_H
#define <?php echo $MODULE_NAME; ?>API_H
// Maximum number of devices support
#define <?php echo $MODULE_NAME; ?>_DEVICES 16
// Driver name
#define <?php echo $MODULE_NAME; ?>_DRIVER_NAME "<?php echo $MODULE_NAME; ?>" 
// Driver version
#define <?php echo $MODULE_NAME; ?>_DRIVER_VERSION "v0.0.1-development"
