You can't really consider the style for functions in isolation. For example if your style uses initial capital for class names then thisFoo() or this_foo() makes sense for functions because it disambiguates ThisFoo() to the reader. -- Ian |

Personally I prefer the ThisFoo() because I come from Delphi. Are you using Visual Studio or something else? |

For my eyes at the moment ThisIsFoo looks > prettier becouse its "even". I don't use either form but I prefer ThisIsFoo. I suspect the reason is that we expect the first word of a sentence to be capitalized and seeing thisIsFoo upsets the delicate balance in our brains. |

But its true that it a bit conflicts with the creation of an object: ThisIsFoo(); |
