It absolutely is. Having a standard, even if its not very good is far better than everyone going off and doing their own thing. I never claimed camel case to be a good idea but it is the convention in the example given. Its a bit like suggesting you spell words the way they sound rather than the way they're spelled because it makes more sense.

No, it's a justification for using a standard. It's not a justifcation for selecting camel case as that standard. Your point about "You can tell at a glance what you're dealing with (local/member/property etc). And if we all do things the same way it makes it easier to understand each other's code." are entirely valid, and I agree with them, but they apply just as much to Hungarian notation as camel case.

I know you have a nice sense of humor, that’s why I allow myself a crude jokes sometimes. :)

Uh-huh. Ok it's not a justification for using camel case for its own merit, its justification for using camel case because that is the standard. Better?

Go ahead, we are all crude people here, so the cruder the humor, the funnier it is for all of us :)

Not really. It still doesn't explain why it's the standard in the first place. That's what I'm trying to userstand. Lots of people use camel case as a naming standard, but no-one seems able to say why it's better than the others. So, if you were tasked with developing a set of coding standards, and you decided to use camel case for variables, would you be explain to someone the benefits of that over an MFC-style
str...or C-stylelpsz...convention? -

Standards aren't always designed, sometimes they just get adopted and evolve despite being imperfect. Who knows? I would expect Hungarian got dropped due to the better Intellisense handling in Visual Studio at its mainstay 'p_' no longer holding any worth. In short its benefits got outweighed by its clumsiness.

I'm not asking why it's the standard where you are. You seem to like it as a naming convention. What I'm asking is why you like it. Why do you think it's better than the others? I may have misinterpreted your opinion of course. You may dislike it as much as I do...

Actually, it's not something I feel deeply passionate about. Kind of indifferent to it as a choice, kind of like it because it is a standard and I can, for instance, tell what's a type (Pascal) and what's a variable (Camel) at a glance. Thank God, it's time to go to the pub now (almost)...

I started to check out StyleCop this morning. I'm not going to rant about every other rule it follows, but has anyone noticed that the file **.Designer.cs violates:
SA1201: All methods must be placed after all fields.
Windows creates this file. I think I'm done with StyleCop.
I don't like style cop unless I am offshoring unthinking work to unthinking developers. True software is written by creative professionals. If I wanted to be micromanaged I would work in a call center.
Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

No, FxCop and StyleCop are different. StyleCop analyzes your source code, whereas FxCop does static analysis on your compiled assembly. Normally you are supposed to use them together, so they complement each other.

They complement each other, but they certainly don't compliment you. BTW - they work really well in combination with NDepend.
I'm not a stalker, I just know things. Oh by the way, you're out of milk.
Forgive your enemies - it messes with their heads

Interesting. Never used NDepend myself though.

So? Edit it. Big fat hairy deal. I delete mine and put that crap in the main file like VS 2002 and 2003 do. Just because I can. :-D

me too. which is why i think LINQ is crap.
I find LINQ quite readable in most cases.
