Corner case for CamelCase

[AlekSi]

Consider this:

… and sends PUBLISHed messages to …

Here PUBLISH is capitalized because it's packet type (in MQTT, if you wonder). Spell checker tells me PUBLIS is not a word. Maybe it can also check words PUBLISH and ed?

I had to decide which way to go for that one.

Most of the code I have seen have associate the last upper case letter with the next word. Even in GO, this is true. See HTMLEscape.

[AlekSi]

Can we go both ways? Check both PUBLIS/Hed and PUBLISH/ed (HTML/Escape and HTMLE/scape) and show error only if both are incorrect.

[AlekSi]

But that can give false positives… I guess I will write PUBLISH'ed when it will work (it gives me error at the moment) or PUBLISH-ed (works now).

Hmm, I need to think about what will give the best experience. I might be able to have it as a setting.

Another corner case are the words like "don't" and "can't". In camel case, they're usually written like dont and cant. E.g. dontModifyModel. Of course, the spellchecker complains about the word "dont". But if we simply add it to the dictionary, "dont" in the comments also won't be detected.

[Jason3S]

Good point. I don't have a good solution for that yet.

Hi, Jason, I found "VMware" seemed to be the same case. The warning says Unknown word "Mware".
Why do I get the same warning even after I put "VMware" in the user dictionary?

[Jason3S]

@isra-fel good example. The issue has to do with the rules to break up CamelCase words.

FWIW proper punctuation for this usage is PUBLISH-ed ;-)
