Is there some (informal) guideline of how to name intent extras, that is, their defining string?
Even within the SDK this seems to be controversial: * Single word in small letters: SearchManager.QUERY = "query" http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/app/SearchManager.html#QUERY * fully qualified string with capital letters: Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON = "android.intent.extra.shortcut.ICON" http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/content/Intent.html#EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON Looking at the Google project ZXing, there is also the single word in capital letters: com.android.barcodes.Intents.MODE = "SCAN_MODE" http://code.google.com/p/zxing/source/browse/trunk/android/src/com/android/barcodes/Intents.java This inconsistency becomes quite apparent when looking at a list of various extras: http://www.openintents.org/en/extras I understand that much of this may be historically based, but I wonder if the Android developers can provide some guidelines of what worked well or how they would prefer to name future intent extras?
