Sharing some naming conventions is a key point to make it possible for a team to efficiently collaborate.
This rule allows to check that all parameter names match a provided regular expression.
The default configuration is the one recommended by Microsoft:
- 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, productID
- Longer abbreviations need to be lower cased, e.g. html
Noncompliant code example
With the default regular expression ^[a-z][a-z0-9]*([A-Z]{1,3}[a-z0-9]+)*([A-Z]{2})?$
Module Module1
Sub GetSomething(ByVal ID As Integer) ' Noncompliant
End Sub
End Module
Compliant solution
Module Module1
Sub GetSomething(ByVal id As Integer) ' Compliant
End Sub
End Module
