Why is this an issue?

Shared coding conventions allow teams to collaborate efficiently. This rule checks that all non-private Const field names comply with the 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})?$:

Module Module1
    Public Const foo = 0  ' Noncompliant
End Module

Compliant solution

Module Module1
    Public Const Foo = 0  ' Compliant
End Module
