Class names that start with C

Question

The MFC has all class names that start with C. For example, CFile and CGdiObject. Has anyone seen it used elsewhere? Is there an official naming convention guide from Mic

Answer 1

When writing applications that use the Qt libraries, we use a naming convention that distinguishes classes that are directly or indirectly derived from QObject from classes that aren't. This is useful because you can tell from the class name whether or not it supports signals/slots, properties, and all the other goodies that come from QObject.
