Reminded me of the old Visual Basic, in which you'd declare your variables with caps but write their usage in lowercaps. This way the instantaneous auto-capitalization checked for you that you had written the name correctly (instead of implicitly defining a new variable!).
- ReidZB 12y agoEven today, auto capitalization fixing (and just auto-formatting code as you type in general) is one of my favorite features of Visual Studio, one that I wish I could have in every IDE/editor. For example, if your class is named FooBar and you are declaring a FooBar variable by typing foobar, Visual Studio will just auto-fixit as you type. Same goes for properly formatting if statements, declaring functions required by interfaces, etc... In comparison, Xcode requires you to "confirm" the autocompletion fix by hitting enter, which is less ergonomic in my opinion.
