interesting point. to be fair the code snippet is fake, since i use Qt 3. due to a massive lack of STL classes on our UNIX box i have to stick to the collection classes included with Qt 3. realistically i cannot change the collection type later on, since they tend not have compatible interfaces

Why is this? I thought Unix environments were supposed to be up-to-date?

*shudder* personally i diskile typedef for things like this, because then i do not know what it is. does this type have an iterator? which iterator types, if any? is it a list or a map? maps have a different interface (at least in Qt, which is what we use) to lists, so knowing the difference is very important.
it is a personal preference, but i hate having to go hunting through files to find out what i am manipulating.

Whatever I feel like.
I will mostly use obscure variables and names, which does make it hard for the next guy, but it does secure the job for me

It does secure that you'll spent your life maintaining legacy code, because you won't get any new projects and nobody can read the old ones.

Hi, what does 'camel cased' stands for? What about 'pascal cased'?
Can you give me some examples? Thanks in advance for your answer.

I use camelCase for local variables and HungarianNotation for GUI constrol, such as txtUsername.

That's my one concession to Hungarian these days. Though strictly speaking, in .NET say, we should write "usernameTextBox."

Not according to the designer created names we see in VS.. e.g. textBox1, textBox2 etc - for me this indicates that we should probably be naming like so: textBoxUserName, textBoxPassword etc. Which fits nicely with the C# design guidelines.

Exactly.
I used to use hungarian when I was using c++, because that was what everyone in the company was using. Now I switched to Java, so I use camel which is the standard.
Going against the standard is a bad idea, you would just be making extra work for yourself for no reason

I use hungarian while using C++. When creating object instances, the "obj" prefix is used. In C# I still use hungarian for "primitive" types (int, long, double, string, char), but I avoid using "obj" since everything is a class. Therefore, I use camelNotation for any variables other than "primitive" types. I use obj when:
object objSomething;

And examples!
I wanted all lowercase, and camel was typed that way... time to wake up!
