Do use file-based namespace declarations.

Opened this issue · 0 comments

The only reason to use scoped-based namespace declarations is when there is more than one namespace define in a file. Since this condition should be avoided in production code, I propose the guideline: Do use file-based namespace declarations.

This wording, however, may not be clear enough. Perhaps Do use file-based namespace declarations and avoid scope-based namespace declarations.

I suspect that over time scope-based namespace declarations will disappear except in legacy code.
