KWStyle is a style checker for source code.

KWStyle is integrated in the software process to ensure that the code written by several users is consistent and can be viewed/printed as it was written by one person.

KWStyle is primarily checking C/C++ source code but can be easily extended to other languages. It assumes that the code is syntaxically correct, i.e it compiles on a standard compiler.

Among the fearures provided by KWStyle:

• Several Indentation checking
• Copyright Header correctness
• Maximum line length
• Encapsulation preservation
• Internal variable checking via regular expressions
• New line at the end of file

A complete list of the features is available here.
KWStyle is used by many open-source projects such as ITK, VTK, CMake, IGSTK, etc.
