strcuts and ["clr:property"]

[kwaclaw]

When the directive ["clr: property"] is used with structs, incorrect code is generated. Given this Slice definition:

["clr:property"]
struct Date {
  byte Day;
  byte Month;
  short Year;
};

The code generated for the struct constructor does not compile, returning the error "'this' object cannot be used before all of its fields are assigned to":

public Date(byte Day, byte Month, short Year)
{
    this.Day = Day;
    this.Month = Month;
    this.Year = Year;
}

The assigments should be made to the fields, not the properties.

Btw, is there a reason why private fields and method parameters in the C# code are capitalized? This is a very uncommon code style for C#.

Thanks for the bug report! I'll have a look at this.

They use whatever capitalization you use for the corresponding Slice identifier.
