'''Mandatory ''{}'' for empty ''for''/''while'' loops'''


It should also contain a comment to make it clear that the loop is intentionally empty.
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
<syntax type="C++">
while (i < length - 1 && array[++i] != item);   // bad
while (i < length - 1 && array[++i] != item) ; // Look for index of item with an empty loop
while (i < length - 1 && array[++i] != item) {} // good

The following syntax is also acceptable:
<syntax type="C++">
while (i < length - 1 && array[++i] != item)
; //this loop is intentionally empty

No whitespace after a cast; and in a pointer, we write a whitespace before the start but not after it.

We use the same rule for references as we do for pointers: use a whitespace before the "&" but not after it.

'''Vertical alignment'''
 
When it adds to readability, a vertical alignment by means of extra tabs or spaces is allowed. However, it is not advised to have the opening and closing brackets/braces to occupy a single line.
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">
int foo    = 2;
int morefoo = 3;
 
Common::Rect *r = new Common::Rect(x,
                                  y,
                                  x + w,
                                  y + h);

* Note comment on whether fall through is intentional. Use exactly this and not some variation both for consistency and so that the compiler will see it and suppress potential warnings.
