Florian Hockmann commented on TINKERPOP-2378:
---------------------------------------------
I agree with Stephen that having a PascalCase and a camelCase version of each
step in C# would be confusing and would also pollute the code a lot. I'm also
wondering whether that would really solve the problem you describe,
[~dzmitry.lahoda], as you would still have to add generic type arguments in C#
as they cannot be interfered from usage oftentimes even though it's possible in
Java / Groovy.
Overall, the approach we've taken with providing
[Translators|https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/current/upgrade/#_translators]
that can for example translate from Gremlin-Java into Gremlin.NET seems to be
the better solution for this kind of workflow in my opinion. We already have a
translator in Java to do this and TINKERPOP-2367 addresses implementing this
also in .NET.
So my take here would be to close this as _Won't do_ but I'm of course also
open for other suggestions/arguments if others think that this might be a good
addition to Gremlin.NET / GLVs in general (although Gremlin.NET is currently
mostly affected by this).
> Make C# DSL to be more closer to standard (lower case extensions)

> Key: TINKERPOP-2378
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2378
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: dotnet
> Affects Versions: 3.4.6
> Reporter: Dzmitry.Lahoda
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: c#, dot_net, dsl, generator
> Original Estimate: 72h
> Remaining Estimate: 72h
>
> Usually, I prototype queries via gremlin console or azure cosmos console. I
> use first small letter in traversal steps. For example, 'outE`. Porting to
> strongly typed DSL requires to update all lower case steps into upper. Like,
> 'OutE`. It is very tedious process. Could we have `outE` and `OutE`
> projections for C#? It would make my life much more pleasant and C# closer to
> Gremlin standard. All such cases of differences do apply. C# has extensions
> and static using and case sensitive and dynamic. So most stuff in place to
> make C# to Groovy almost one to one.
