this macro is messy
it replaces writing 
{ret = AVERROR_INVALIDDATA; goto fail;}
by
RETURN_ERROR(AVERROR_INVALIDDATA);

this is almost the same length but the first is directly understood C code
the 2nd is harder to understand for someone reading the code so i  
suggest to avoid the 2nd and use something else, not saying that needs to
be the first

thanks

The only reason this macro exists is because it allows me to add code
that can easily be removed lateron when cleaning up after read_header
failure will be automatic, whereas an

if (foo) {
    ret = bar;
    goto fail;
}

leads to a bigger diff now and later. If you want to, I could of course use
if (foo)
    { ret = bar; goto fail; }

I have no oppinion about the intermediate state but i think we should have
optimally readable/clean code in the end after all planned changes

Please pardon me for bringing this up in the context of this patch.
No objections or particular opinion regarding this instance of the
problem.

Though thinking more globally, I believe it would have a beneficial
impact to add the curly braces everywhere; even where they would not
be required because of the one-statement exception.

It might be a bit longer regarding vertical space consumption, but
I'm sure the advantages would outweigh this disadvantage over time.
Also because we don't put the opening brace on a line of its own,
it would not consume so much more vertical space.

Advantages I see are:

1. enables easier experimentation and debugging
2. future changes are easier to write and create smaller diffs
3. completely eliminates dangling-else problems


Just wanted to hear how other developers currently feel about this.

In my opinion this is not a significant benefit, the overhead of any edits while doing this is trivial.  (Others may disagree, but it seems worth noting which parts I agree with.)

I agree that this is a point in favour.

> 3. completely eliminates dangling-else problems

I think this is irrelevant, because compilers have already solved it:

$ cat test-dangling-else.c

int f(int a, int b)
{
     if (a)
         if (b)
             return 1;
       else
           return 2;

     return 0;
}
$ gcc -c -Wall test-dangling-else.c
test-dangling-else.c: In function ‘f’:
test-dangling-else.c:4:8: warning: suggest explicit braces to avoid ambiguous ‘else’ [-Wdangling-else]
     4 |     if (a)
       |        ^

The freeform nature of C is often helpful to make code look nicer and such a requirement would make some useful patterns worse, so I oppose such a change.

To offer an example, consider the commonish code pattern:

if      (a) p = x;
else if (b) q = y;
else if (c) r = z;

with some alignment of related subexpressions.  Making uniform use of braces and newlines mandatory makes this actively worse however you do it.

(Some randomly-chosen similar examples: <http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=blob;f=libavcodec/mpegaudiodsp_template.c;h=e531f8a904b14ad2f5cc6e59ad608bfe64b50065;hb=HEAD#l236>, <http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=blob;f=libavcodec/error_resilience.c;h=ca2287198be69505a03f12dcbe9cff2b485de769;hb=HEAD#l465>.)

Hi Mark,

thanks for your opinion on this!

I obviously disagree here, but it's sure a subjective topic.

Agreed, compilers warn about this. I  still think there is merit in
being able sort it out, before compiling, especially when doing code
reviews on the mailing list.

I think this sort of alignment is another practice that didn't stand
the test of time.

I know it is very tempting to use when initially adding some code,
but it is often subjective and hard to keep in shape after (multiple)
change over times. You need to follow up with cosmetics and I assume
more often than not it will be overseen or forgotten, which makes
that code weird to read.

I know this sort of alignment is used often throughout FFmpeg's
code base. If you want I can try to dig out examples where it has
gone wrong, stumbled over this every now and then.
