Windows Naming conventions

Name of function:

• Refer to the naming conventions for Windows APIs.

• It is recommended to use the movable-object structure. Function names should clearly reflect the function and purpose of the functions.

• The function name must be no longer than 30 characters.

• The first letter of the function name must be capitalized.

• The global function must begin with a lowercase prefix "g".

4. Variable name:

In principle, the names of variables are named in accordance with the Hungarian notation. That is: prefix + type + variable name

1) Format:

[M_|s_|g_] Type [class name|struct name] variable name

2) Explanation:

m_: Member variables of a class

ms_: Static member Variable of class

s_: Static global variables

g_: Normal global variables

• Type abbreviations (types)

Char, Tchar:ch

char[],tchar[]: SZ

bool, BOOL:B

int, __int16,__int32,__int64:n

long:l

double:d

float:ft

· Byte:by

· Word:w

· Dword:dw

Unsigned:u

FUNCTION:FN

P:pointer

Lp:pointer

The name of the variable must be no longer than 20 characters.

5. Class Name:

• You must start with a capital "K" and the following letters reflect the specific meaning, in order to clearly express the purpose and function of the class principle.

• The interface must start with a capital "I" and represent Interface.

• When a name is made up of multiple words, the first letter of each word must be capitalized.

6, structure name, macro name, enumeration name, Union name:

• All uppercase.

• Enumeration name plus lowercase prefix "enum".

Cases:

typedef enum _KFILE_OPEN_MODE

{

enumopen_readonly = 0,

Enumopen_readwrite = 1,

Enumcreate_alway = 3

} Kfile_open_mode;

• Macro name plus lowercase prefix "def".

Cases:

#define DEFMAXNUMBER 100

• The structure name is prefixed with the lowercase prefix "tag" and must be preceded by a capital "K".

Cases:

typedef struct TAGKPOINT

{

int x;

int y;

} Kpoint;

• Union name plus lowercase prefix "uni".

Cases:

typedef Union _variant{

Char Unichval;

int uninval;

Long Unilval;

float Uniftval;

...

} VARIANT;
