Unfortunately I can't

I am not a manager. In fact, they work on a different team and their manager thinks that they are God's gift to programming. At least if we establish standards we can try to hold them to it.

These people came from non OO backgrounds (I think C/C++) and therefore program Java like C. It is an unfortunate fact that few C/C++ really understand OO programming.

Lines of code in a Java method ... - (bluke) - (73) - Sept. 22, 2004, 10:23:14 AM EDT

I don't know of studies of this with OO languages - (ben_tilly) - (64) - Sept. 22, 2004, 10:48:22 AM EDT

I remember that when I read Code Complete ... - (bluke) - (60) - Sept. 22, 2004, 10:59:17 AM EDT

Hence my speculation about how and why to change that for OO -NT - (ben_tilly) - (59) - Sept. 22, 2004, 11:30:34 AM EDT

In OO code many of the decision points ... - (bluke) - (58) - Sept. 22, 2004, 11:36:37 AM EDT

The superclass decides nothing - (ben_tilly) - (43) - Sept. 22, 2004, 09:55:16 PM EDT

Once again, it's the terminology - (drewk) - (40) - Sept. 22, 2004, 10:20:23 PM EDT

That's not multiple inheritance - (ben_tilly) - Sept. 23, 2004, 12:05:47 AM EDT

You misunderstand interfaces and factories ... - (bluke) - (2) - Sept. 23, 2004, 11:20:06 AM EDT

Drew is right. - (FuManChu) - (1) - Sept. 23, 2004, 12:38:44 PM EDT

My point was - (bluke) - Sept. 23, 2004, 05:00:13 PM EDT

I'm actually on the fence - (ben_tilly) - (32) - Sept. 23, 2004, 10:55:24 AM EDT

That is with implementation inheritance - (bluke) - (2) - Sept. 23, 2004, 11:00:41 AM EDT

That is both with interface and implementation inheritance - (ben_tilly) - (1) - Sept. 23, 2004, 11:08:29 AM EDT

With interfaces it is less of a concern - (bluke) - Sept. 23, 2004, 11:17:39 AM EDT

Hadn't heard of LSP - (drewk) - (28) - Sept. 23, 2004, 12:36:16 PM EDT

Huh? - (tuberculosis) - (27) - Sept. 23, 2004, 01:23:55 PM EDT

Re: Don't get all religious on me - (JimWeirich) - (23) - Sept. 24, 2004, 01:11:21 AM EDT

And that's the key point - (ben_tilly) - (22) - Sept. 24, 2004, 10:34:42 AM EDT

Someday I've got to take a class - (drewk) - (21) - Sept. 24, 2004, 03:18:39 PM EDT

..when I get my inheritance -NT - (deSitter) - Sept. 24, 2004, 03:54:21 PM EDT

Yup. No generic substitute for that. -NT - (FuManChu) - Sept. 24, 2004, 04:00:08 PM EDT

Good idea in this instance. - (admin) - (14) - Sept. 24, 2004, 04:20:45 PM EDT

I object; it's part of a general pattern -NT - (FuManChu) - (13) - Sept. 24, 2004, 05:44:34 PM EDT

Ah, but I have a cunning strategy... - (admin) - (12) - Sept. 24, 2004, 06:17:48 PM EDT

Bah. Overridden. - (FuManChu) - (1) - Sept. 24, 2004, 06:26:44 PM EDT

Overloaded your capacity for understanding, eh? - (admin) - Sept. 24, 2004, 06:31:13 PM EDT

Ashton, is that you? - (Another Scott) - (7) - Sept. 24, 2004, 06:29:07 PM EDT

Better than the treasurer... - (admin) - (6) - Sept. 24, 2004, 06:33:02 PM EDT

He'll have to wait - I'm collecting garbage - (ben_tilly) - (5) - Sept. 24, 2004, 06:59:43 PM EDT

Coincidentally, there's a fellow around here named Mark... - (admin) - (4) - Sept. 24, 2004, 08:48:18 PM EDT

I'm sorry but that pointer is dangling - (ben_tilly) - (3) - Sept. 24, 2004, 09:11:32 PM EDT

Some people have too much time on their hands... - (static) - (2) - Sept. 25, 2004, 06:26:13 AM EDT

You're a real LALRf riot. - (admin) - (1) - Sept. 25, 2004, 09:35:21 AM EDT

So you sed. Personally, I think it's a Perl in the Blinker. -NT - (Another Scott) - Sept. 25, 2004, 10:12:54 AM EDT

Uuuuuhh... - (jb4) - Sept. 24, 2004, 07:27:18 PM EDT

The cun.. er, clever linguist suffers Code 715 - (Ashton) - Sept. 25, 2004, 03:08:51 AM EDT

Or an interface - (tuberculosis) - (2) - Sept. 24, 2004, 10:56:23 PM EDT

Yes, and that's what we do - (drewk) - (1) - Sept. 25, 2004, 10:04:33 PM EDT

Language doesn't need to support abstract class - (tuberculosis) - Sept. 25, 2004, 11:47:26 PM EDT

That was not what I meant - (bluke) - Sept. 26, 2004, 02:30:26 AM EDT

It's a decision, but it's abstracted out - (Arkadiy) - (1) - Sept. 23, 2004, 10:11:04 AM EDT

Yes, but I don't care how it works - (bluke) - Sept. 23, 2004, 10:39:02 AM EDT

DP's are compressed in OO - (tuberculosis) - (6) - Sept. 23, 2004, 01:09:43 PM EDT

Mostly, it is - (tablizer) - (1) - Oct. 13, 2004, 01:10:40 PM EDT

To the naive programmer, perhaps. - (admin) - Oct. 13, 2004, 01:57:31 PM EDT

Something tells me you'd like prototype OO as a midground -NT - (FuManChu) - (1) - Oct. 8, 2004, 01:56:34 AM EDT

*No-one* can eat that much crow -NT - (pwhysall) - Oct. 8, 2004, 01:57:41 AM EDT
