What is the best way to access properties from the same class, via accessors or directly? [closed]

Answer 1

This is quite interesting, I think most of the people doing what I do

Me.Name = "Johnny"

or

Name = "Johnny"

However most of the projects that I've seen using

_Name = "Jonny"

style. Which I though was a bad idea, and thanks to answers you confirmed it. Even most of the auto-code generated code by several tools uses direct access.

Is there any particular performance hit? Or is compiler optimises it when there is no extra code in set or get.
