In Java,
java.lang.System.arraycopy– note the lowercase second c.Also
NullPointerExceptionin Java is better asNullReferenceExceptionin .NET.AppDomainviolates the convention of normally not using abbreviations.Control.IDviolates the explicit convention of Pascal-casing ID to ‘Id’ and Camel-casing it to ‘id’.EDIT: Due to popular demand, a couple more… although they’re more just badly named than convention-defying.
SortedListin .NET – that explains what the implementation is, but doesn’t give the correct impression about what the API is – that of a dictionary.Type.MakeGenericType– it makes a constructed type. DittoMethodInfo.MakeGenericMethod.
