Accessibility of multiple fields declared at the same line

Question

I wonder if I do this all the variables will be public or just the first one:

public string equipamento, marca, modelo, descricao, observacoes, prioridade;

Or if I need to declare them like this:

public string equipamento;
public string marca;
public string modelo; 
[...]

The second option obviously works, but does the first one too?

Answer 1

As explained in the C# language specification, section 10.4 Fields on MSDN:

A field declaration that declares multiple fields is equivalent to multiple declarations of single fields with the same attributes, modifiers, and type. For example

class A
{
   public static int X = 1, Y, Z = 100;
}

is equivalent to

class A
{
   public static int X = 1;
   public static int Y;
   public static int Z = 100;
}

But as commented by @hyde, consider the former bad practice. It actively harms the readability of your code.
