I don't think anyone's getting confused but I do think that having four different ways to write essentially the same thing can lead to inconsistent code. And when you have a large project with lots of people working on the same co

I'd recommend Nightwish. Start with "Moondance" and go from there. And, of course, there's always Yngwie Malmsteen.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that web proxies are trivial, simply that this is nothing new - there are hundreds of proxy sites from all over the world on http://proxy.org/cgi_proxies.shtml . Still, if you made this, good

Ok... so - this is a web proxy service. Am I missing something here or is this all there is to it?

Or they could do away with LOC as a metric entirely and use number of repos instead?

As you may have guessed from my previous comment, I hate it when people write "foo".equals(bar). This kind of a clever trick is an accident waiting to happen unless you're really, really ok with null being a valid value for b

By the way, nobody should ever use "foo".equals(someVariable) anyway. If anything, it should be someVariable.equals("foo"), unless you really know what you're doing and are ok with null being a valid value of someVa

Sure, but: a) Now your singleton is also responsible for providing a mock implementation of itself (which shouldn't really be one of its concerns). b) You didn't really do anything here: the class under test is still going to use
107.
by Sandman 13y ago
C.getX() is going to be called by many different methods in many classes. This means that each time you unit test any of these methods, you're also testing C.getX() when you should only be testing what the method does.

> Who says that you have to be able to mock C? Not every class should be mockable. In case described by OP, why would we want to mock cache anyways? Well it isn't really a unit test if you don't, is it? If you don't mock i

by Sandman 13y ago
Doing x=C.get(x) is bad because there's no way of mocking C, thereby making unit testing a component that uses C impossible (the unit test will need to use the concrete implementation of C). Using dependency injection as described in t

Wait, explain it to me like I'm 10 years old. As I see it, there are three options - either it's a boy-boy pair, a girl-girl pair or a boy-girl pair. Now, since OP introduced the age variable, let's give the kids names to mak

Which means you used a bad naming convention. I hope you updated them to something that is descriptive enough and yet won't need to be changed next time marketing decides to change the product name.

It's just that sentences like "There certainly seems to be a grand coalition of people who want to attack Scala" and "why is everybody attacking Scala" struck me as a bit paranoid. Sure, there are people that tried

One thing I noticed about Odersky is that he is very protective of his creation (which is understandable, to some degree). He defends Scala against any and all criticism with a fervor, and this puts him in sharp contrast with most of other
