Why is this an issue?
Shared coding conventions allow teams to collaborate efficiently. This rule checks that all enumeration value names match a provided regular expression.
The default configuration is the one recommended by Microsoft:
- Pascal casing, starting with an upper case character, e.g. BackColor
- Short abbreviations of 2 letters can be capitalized, e.g. GetID
- Longer abbreviations need to be lower cased, e.g. GetHtml
Noncompliant code example
With the default regular expression ^([A-Z]{1,3}[a-z0-9]+)*([A-Z]{2})?$:
Enum Foo
fooValue ' Noncompliant
End Enum
Compliant solution
Enum Foo
FooValue ' Compliant
End Enum
