Is there a common/standard naming convention for variables in Delphi? I'm noticing that Hungarian (or any variation of it) doesn't seem to be common in most of the examples I've seen, although most of them are sort of along the same lines. Can someone perhaps provide a link to common variable naming methods in Delphi?


I think you'll find in many strongly typed languages the use of hungarian has been deprecated for some time now, be that Delphi or VB.NET, etc, etc. Typically the Casing rules are similar, but you're probably better asking those kind of questions in a Delphi group as this group is for VB6 and lesser; which I thought you were in fact well aware of. I can understand ..net newbies stumbling onto the wrong group, but you seem to be trying to set a precedent that any language is okay in here. Strange.
