在C＃中将受保护变量编码为Uow或_uow是否正常？

Question

I am coding an application that is similar to the Code Camper application. In this application I see the following code in a controller base:

public abstract class ApiControllerBase : ApiController
{
    protected ICodeCamperUow Uow { get; set; }
}

In the controller:

public class AttendanceController : ApiControllerBase
{
    public AttendanceController(ICodeCamperUow uow)
    {
        Uow = uow;
    }

I understand that it's normal to have parameters as lowercase in C# but is it normal practice to name the Uow as in the above or would _uow which is what I have been using a naming convention that is more commonly adopted?

Answer 1

The naming conventions in the sample look typical. The _ prefix (like _uow ), is typically used with private fields . There is no private field here; Uow is a property, and it's protected, not private.

And again, these are just common conventions. There is nothing in the language to enforce this, and a particular project may depart from this at the discretion of the development team.

Answer 2

Assuming you are asking about default style as covered on MSDN Capitalization Styles .

Since it is property it should use PascalCase, if it would be field it should use lowerCase.

Note that the name does not seem to follow Abbreviations suggestion.

Overall if your codebase follows particular coding guideline and everyone is happy with it - follow the same. For public samples consider following default C# guideline (full word names, no prefixes/underscores, proper casing).

Answer 3

As a generic guideline from Microsoft themselves for c++, c#, etc

Do not use underscores, hyphens, or any other nonalphanumeric characters. It's subjective in my opinion, conventions aren't hard and fast rules, most important is the consistency.
