I have question about naming conventions (as opposed to coding
conventions).
Before I got seriously into Windows coding, I worked at a contracting
shop where they had a naming convention where global variables began
with g, parameters began with p, locals began with l. So:
Extern int gNumItems;
void Foo( int pNumThings, char* pText )
{
float lValue;
}
Imagine my adjustment when I had to switch to Hungarian. ;-)
My question(s) are:
- Why do you object to Hungarian? Do you know the history of it and its
purpose?
- Do any Windows coders on this list object to Hungarian?
- Is there some other naming scheme that we can use to enhance
readability and debuggability? (IMO these are the main benefits of
Hungarian.)
