<h2>Code Styles preferences</h2>
<p>Carbide supports the use of code styles in projects via the C/C++ <img src="../images/command_link.png" alt="" width="16" height="12" border="0" /> <a class="command-link" href='javascript:executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.window.preferences(preferencePageId=org.eclipse.cdt.ui.preferences.CodeFormatterPreferencePage)")'> Code Style</a> preference panel. Use a code style profile to set specific smart typing features, like indentation, tabs or spaces, and many more options. There are several built-in code styles like GNU, Whitesmith, and others, while Carbide supplies these additional styles:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Symbian</b> — settings are based on the <a href="http://developer.symbian.com/main/downloads/papers/coding_stds/2003-01_SyOSCodStn.pdf">Symbian C++ coding standards</a></li>
<li><b>S60</b> — settings are based on the <strong>C++ Developer's Library > </strong><a href="http://library.forum.nokia.com/index.jsp?topic=/Nokia_Symbian3_Developers_Library/GUID-B51A9A1F-8E80-4DF6-904A-7BD1A8976BBB.html">C++ Coding Conventions</a></li>
<li><strong>Qt</strong> — settings for Qt projects</li>
</ul>
<p>Setting a code style sets it for the entire workspace. When a new file is created the currently selected code style rules are applied as you edit the file. You can apply a set of rules to a previously created source file by opening it in an editor view, then right-clicking and choosing <b>Source > Format</b> (<span class="code">CTRL+SHIFT+F</span>). </p>
