When I'm programming in C++ I'm always in the habit of declaring
member variables with an "m_" prefix. Placing an "m" or "m_"
before a variable doesn't really seem to be a convention in
Objective-C. Most people when they declare an Interface Building
outlet don't prefix the outlet name with anything, and the outlets
available from Cocoa class don't prefixes either. The outlets
basically show up as public instance variables in the class
declaration.
It seems inconsistent for some member to have a prefix and some to
not have the prefix. For this reason, I tend to avoid prefixing
Objective-C member variables that way.
Well, I'd do what I could. If it would benefit me to use such a
naming convention I'd use it. If a naming convention made me more
productive, I'd use it. (It does, so I do.) Now, if I were writing
Obj-C and there were a commonly accepted convention for naming
instance variables, I'd use it, but I wouldn't forego something
useful just because other Obj-C programmers don't use it.
