We code to our IDE. Since we use toad for our PL-SQL development we always
format our code with that. But we're a pretty loose division generally. --Ben.

Hi all,
to kick off this list, I have always wanted to know if anyone follows
any PL/SQL coding guidelines.
I know I follow some naming conventions myself, like for example all
variables end with a "_v", all input arguments end with a "_in", and
output with an "_out". I also avoid declaring explicit cursors unless
I have to, and always create packages that encapsulate my procedures
and functions.
Now, this all may be good if you are the only programmer in the
company, but in my opinion, is not sufficient if you are part of a
team. See, unless *all* team members follow the *same* coding
standard, there is no standard in coding.
Where I work, everyone has his/her own coding style. So, if I want to
debug one of my colleague's code, I have to spend this extra time and
effort to get into his/her coding style.
Is this the case where you work? or, nowadays, nobody cares how
developers write code as long as it works! What do you think?
