In that case: I am too. I personally think class names and especially package names are the most underestimated and ill-considered features in the Java programming language. In the projects I have been working on upto now it were exactly these features that started all the little so-called 'unimportant' annoyances: - scrolling 5 screens to get to the class you need - confusion about which class to use - after refactoring not being sure which is the old and which is the new class - illegible classnames (eg. Action_1.java, MyOwnController.java) ... I even saw a class once, which was used in production to start the application ... this class was called: "HelloWorld.java", no kidding .. the guy just copy&pasted the code and adapted the body of the class later on. - package constructions like com.pany.gui.panels.events and then a class com.pany.gui.events.AbstractPanelEvent (UGH!) If this would be the case in AndroMDA (God forbid!) we would never have achieved what we have upto now, you can take that to the bank. no no.. keep it up guys, we're doing great ! :-) w __________________________________________________________________ Introducing the New Netscape Internet Service.
