Type name structure

Type Name Structure

Description

Type shall start/end with specific characters _t, t_, Type_.

Rule parameters are given as a comma-separated list. Parameters are:

• prefix: expected type name prefix. Default value is empty (no prefix).

• suffix: expected type name suffix. Default value is _t.

Rationale

This enhances the readability of a model through homogeneous naming.

Verification

The rule registers to named types and raises a violation when:

• The name does not match the expected prefix

  Message: Type name does not start with <prefix>

• The name does not match the expected suffix

  Message: Type name does not end with <suffix>

Resolution

Rename the offending type.
