PSR-2 Control Structures and Statements

gistfile1.md

Class/method blocks:

These things are "blocks" of code, always on their own lines because they are always by themselves.

<?php
class Foo
{
  public function doSomeShit() 
  {
  
  }

}

Control Statements

These flow into each other because they are connected.

<?php
if (true) {
  // stuff
} else {
  // bla
}

try {
  // do stuff
} catch (Foo $e) {
  // AAAHH
}

Allman says:

<?php
if (true)
{
  // stuff
}

// Some big long comment about something
// and it spans over a few lines 
// and it might end up off the bottom of the screen
// so you could not spot the else
else
{
  // bla
}

That was never planned, it was a random result of a poll which decided things were going to work that way, but im pretty happy about the result.
