zend framework 2 underscore private

Question

Will Zend Framework 2 continue to place underscores in front of private members and methods of classes? e.g:

class blah {
    private $_name;

    private function _doSomethingToName()
    {
    }
}

I see that they are still there in the dev release of ZF2.

Answer 1

Yes, and why shouldn't they? It's a convention to do so.

Answer 2

Probably yes, accodring to the poll:

There are currently 381 responses:

• 57% vote "Yes" (to remove the underscores)
• 38% vote "No" (to retain underscores)
• 4% vote "No opinion"
