> No, no, no, no, no!!!! Even Microsoft have given up on this practice as being old-fashioned and causing confusion and making code hard to read!
Well i don't agree. Because c# is using typed variables, so the ide knows what type it is or has to be. The same with delphi, c++ aso. But when you use a language that don't cares about types it's a quite good advice, i guess. And if microsoft gives up sthg. it does not mean that i have to do it too... > Hungarian notation is a *terrible* practice! It makes code hard to read and it makes maintenance *much* harder! Personally i loved the Hungarian notation. In it's detail it could become complicated and generate unreadable code, but if you use a small part of it it's quite handy. Take this code for eg. <cfset var = form.ProductNumber> If you write <cfset sVar = form.ProductNumber> then you know that the ProductNumber not only contains numbers but characters too. Well it's only my idea, i use it for about 10 years now and it seems to work. >Bullshit! This has been totally discredited. Microsoft were the most adamant proponents of Hungarian notation - go read their C# coding >guidelines: they decry Hungarian notation! As mentioned. If you have a compiler or a IDE that checks the types (like c#) i agree, but if not, then i guess my approach is easier. <cfgreetings from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to="reader" location="bern" country="switzerland" function="railo core developer" message="merry xmas"> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - New Atlanta http://www.newatlanta.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:188741 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
