The name of a field in C# does not begin with a lower-case letter.
A violation of this rule occurs when the name of a field begins with an upper-case letter. Constants, non-private readonly fields and static readonly fields should always start with an uppercase letter, whilst private readonly fields should start with a lowercase letter. Also, public or internal fields should always start with an uppercase letter.
If the field name is intended to match the name of an item associated with Win32 or COM, and thus needs to begin with an
upper-case letter, place the field within a special NativeMethods class. A NativeMethods class is any class which
contains a name ending in NativeMethods, and is intended as a placeholder for Win32 or COM wrappers. StyleCop will
ignore this violation if the item is placed within a NativeMethods class.
⚠️ This rule deviates from the corresponding rule in StyleCop "classic" in the following way:This rule only checks the names of fields. SA1306 in StyleCop "classic" checks fields, parameters, and local variables.
To fix a violation of this rule, change the name of the field so that it begins with a lower-case letter, or place the
item within a NativeMethods class if appropriate.
