Naming Conventions
A naming convention is a set of rules for choosing the names for the identifiers in your program. The most often used naming conventions are the Camel notation and the Pascal notation.
In Camel notation, names begin with a lowercase letter. Multi-word names (such as “my variable”) are written with no spaces and no underscore and with each word after the first capitalized. Thus, the correct name for “my variable” in Camel notation is myVariable.
Pascal notation is just like Camel notation except that the first letter is also uppercase (i.e. the correct name for “my variable” in Pascal notation is MyVariable.).
Crestron uses Camel notation for variables, method parameter, delegates and events and Pascal notation for constants, type names and names of classes and methods.
Suggested Identifier Naming Styles:
Style Name | Description | Recommended Use | Example |
Pascal notation | Each word in the identifier is capitalized | constants, type names, names of methods and classes | MyType |
Camel notation | Each word in the identifier, except the first, is capitalized | local variables, method parameters, delegates and events | myVariable |
Uppercase | Composed of all uppercase letters | abbreviations | IO |
Keywords
SIMPL# supports all C# keywords, with the exception of the unsafe, fixed and stackalloc keywords.
