Naming Conventions (NC)

Description:

NC checks whether the code conforms to the naming guidelines. Naming guidelines for C# are the following:

• An interface name should start with the "I" prefix.
• Pascal casing should be used in class, constant, enum type, enum values, event, interface, method, namespace, property, static, and public field names.
• Camel casing should be used in local variable, formal parameter, and non-public instance field names.
• Names of exception classes should end with "Exception". Names of non-exception classes should not end with "Exception". (These checks are performed when the option, Check exception class names, is set.)

Incorrect:

class myClass {
    const int max_size = 10;
  
    void myMethod() {
        int Var;
    }
} 

Correct:

class MyClass {
    const int MaxSize = 10;
  
    void MyMethod() {
        int var;
    }
} 

Incorrect:

class ConversionException {
    ...
}

class InvocationError : System.Exception {
    ...
}

Correct:

class ConversionError {
    ...
}

class InvocationException : System.Exception {
    ...
}

Refactoring:

• Rename Method
