Abstract
Coding rules are customarily used to constrain the use (or abuse) of certain constructions in a programming language. Standard coding rule sets exist that target different languages and application domains. However, these rules are usually written using a natural language, which is intrinsically ambiguous, and which may hinder their automatic application. This short paper presents some early work aiming at defining a framework to formalise and check for coding rule conformance using logic programming. We show how a certain class of rules -- (structural} rules -- can be reformulated as logic programs. Some real examples, including Prolog code formalising them, are shown and discussed.
