(I have tried searching for "singleton pattern what does m stand for" with no result, but there is a lot of code online with variable names called mInstance.)
Code looks something like this:
internal sealed class ClassName
{
private static ClassName mInstance;
public static ClassName Instance
{
get
{
if (mInstance == null)
{
mInstance = new ClassName();
}
return mInstance;
}
}
}
This is clearly a singleton class, but I have no idea why "mInstance" is called "mInstance".
Do you know what "m" stands for?
>Solution :
The m is not related to the singleton pattern, but most likely denotes an internal member field (private, protected) of the class. Other conventions are to start such members with m_ or just an underscore _.
