Shared coding conventions allow teams to collaborate efficiently. This rule checks that all even handler names match a provided regular
expression.
The default configuration is:
- Either in Pascal case, i.e. starting with an upper case letter, e.g. OnMyButtonClicked
- Or, a subject, in Pascal or camel case, followed by an underscore followed by an event name, in Pascal case, e.g. btn1_Clicked
Event handlers with a handles clause and two-parameter methods with EventArgs second parameter are covered by this
rule.
Noncompliant code example
With the default regular expression ^(([a-z][a-z0-9]*)?([A-Z]{1,3}[a-z0-9]+)*([A-Z]{2})?_)?([A-Z]{1,3}[a-z0-9]+)*([A-Z]{2})?$:
Module Module1
Sub subject__SomeEvent() Handles X.SomeEvent ' Noncompliant - two underscores
End Sub
End Module
Compliant solution
Module Module1
Sub subject_SomeEvent() Handles X.SomeEvent ' Compliant
End Sub
End Module
