Overview and description - (naming conventions)

On the following documentation pages, you will find explanations and examples illustrating where these naming conventions are used (i.e. at which points in the project). The declarations samples illustrate cases for which the corresponding prefix would be expected if a prefix was defined with the corresponding naming convention. It should become clear where and how a type or variable can be declared so that the naming convention NC<xxxx> is checked at this point. However, the samples do not show which concrete prefix is defined for the individual naming conventions and would therefore be expected in the sample declarations. There is therefore no OK/NOK comparison.

For concrete examples with a defined prefix, please refer to the page Options.
