Why is this an issue?

Shared naming conventions allow teams to collaborate efficiently.

This rule raises an issue when a method or a property name is not PascalCased.

For example, the method

public int doSomething() {...} // Noncompliant

should be renamed to

public int DoSomething() {...}

Exceptions

• The rule ignores members in types marked with ComImportAttribute or InterfaceTypeAttribute.
• The rule ignores extern methods.
• To reduce noise, two consecutive upper-case characters are allowed unless they form the full name. So, MyXMethod is compliant, but XM is not.
• The camel casing is not enforced when a name contains the '_' character.

void My_method_(){...} // Noncompliant, leading and trailing underscores are reported

void My_method(){...} // Compliant by exception
