Why are all controls of Infragistics begin with My<ControlName>?
posted

Hello to all,

at first, I'm very happy with the Infragistics products, thank you for the good work.

But I grumble every day about the naming convetion of the windows form controls.

MyCombo

MyGrid

MyListView 

etc.

With this Prefix in the name it is also harder to find the right control in the tool box

And yes I know that it isn't "My" but "Ultra" I only want to show how unnecessary this prefix seems to me

Kind regards,

B.

    Hello,

    There are some details on the history of the naming in Why "Ultra"?

    At this time changing the control names would be a breaking change customers upgrading applications.  Having a prefix also helps to avoid avoid conflicts with the names of the Microsoft controls.

    Let me know if I may be of further assistance.
