How to set m_ prefix for private fields via .editorconfig for .NET

I want to configure .editorconfig so it uses "m_" prefix for all private fields in C#/.NET. Can't find a setting that works.

The rule should be supported in the current Visual Studio 2017. Preferably by ReSharper as well.

Solution

  • try this

    dotnet_naming_rule.private_fields_should_have_prefix.severity = warning
dotnet_naming_rule.private_fields_should_have_prefix.symbols  = private_fields
dotnet_naming_rule.private_fields_should_have_prefix.style    = private_prefix_style

dotnet_naming_symbols.private_fields.applicable_kinds   = field
dotnet_naming_symbols.private_fields.required_modifiers = private

dotnet_naming_style.private_prefix_style.required_prefix = m_
dotnet_naming_style.private_prefix_style.capitalization = camel_case
