dialog properties when used in Sling Model

@manu_mathew_ ,

I don't think camelcase naming convention is necessary to follow to inject properties into sling models with @inject. However it is best practice to use camelcase notation for property values because AEM based on Java and Java uses camelcase notations to follow the guidelines in defining pojo classes and variables etc.

if you do not want to use camelcase notation for properties then you can use @named property to define your property 

@manu_mathew_  Its not necessary.If you are using @inject the property name in node and the in the sling model @inject tag is same.

Hi @manu_mathew_,

Camelcase is used in programming language to name different files and functions without violating the naming laws of the underlying language.

It is suggested as everyone follows it. You can still write your own attributes - but be aware of the issues you might face when you integrate with others code.

Thanks,

Hi @manu_mathew_ ,

It is basically a naming convention of java variables when we have more than one word.

and also camelCase convention is followed in AEM JCR properties as well. eg. firstName.

but if you want a JCR property and sling model variables to be different we can use @Named annotations.
@Named("jcr:title")
private String title;
