[RESOLVED] Class Member Variables Naming Convention

[steve65]

Microsoft recommends using something like below for your class naming conventions.

public class Customer
{
    string name;
 
    public string Name
    {
      set
      {
        name = value;
      }
          
      get
      {
        return name;
      }
    }
}

Does anyone know why Microsoft wanted to get away from using the m_? It makes it a bit easier to read and know if you see that m_ it is a class variable.

public class Customer
{
    string m_name;
 
    public string Name
    {
      set
      {
        m_name = value;
      }
          
      get
      {
        return m_name;
      }
    }
}

Your thoughts please?
