Why is this an issue?
Shared coding conventions allow teams to collaborate efficiently. This rule checks that all Private Const field names comply with the
provided regular expression.
The default configuration is:
- Optionally, can start with an underscore character or "s_", e.g.
_foo, s_foo
- Camel casing, starting with a lower case character, e.g. backColor
- Short abbreviations of 2 letters can be capitalized only when not at the beginning, e.g. "id" in productID
- Longer abbreviations need to be lower cased, e.g. html
Noncompliant code example
With the default regular expression ^(s_|_)?[a-z][a-z0-9]*([A-Z]{1,3}[a-z0-9]+)*([A-Z]{2})?$:
Module Module1
Private Const Foo = 0 ' Noncompliant
End Module
Compliant solution
Module Module1
Private Const foo = 0 ' Compliant
End Module
