class Example {
void method(boolean error) {
if (error) {
Log.error("Error occurred!");
System.out.println("Error!");
} else { // Use braces since the other block uses braces.
System.out.println("No error");
}
}
}if / else statement has braces, the other block must too.
else, catch and the while keyword in do…while loops go on the same line as the closing brace of the preceding block.
enum Response { YES, NO, MAYBE }
public boolean isReference() { return true; }The above recommendations are intended to improve uniformity (and thus increase familiarity / readability). In some cases “short forms” that deviate from the above guidelines are just as readable and may be used instead. These cases include for instance simple enum declarations and trivial methods and lambda expressions.
