All Rogue Wave class names start with the letters RW or RWDB, as in RWDBDatabase. In some cases, we may refer to an instance of a class by an English name; for example, "the table" instead of "the RWDBTable instance." We do this to make it easier to read when the meaning should be clear from context, but we use the longer form if there is any ambiguity.
All function names begin with a lower case letter, with the first letter of subsequent words capitalized. Function names attempt to accurately describe what a function does. For example, RWCString::toLower() changes all uppercase letters in itself to lowercase. Underline characters and abbreviations are not generally used in function names.
Throughout the documentation, there are frequent references to self, which should be understood to mean *this.
