I was doing some validation inside a CFC 'bean' and wanted to validate the email address.
I didn't want the email validation inside the bean itself as I know I'll be needing email validation in other beans very soon. I was going to put the email validation method in a generic 'validation utilities' cfc and compose it into my beans that needed it. I then remembered something from the Kent Beck book on Test Driven Development where he mentioned he made a class called 'Money' that acted almost like a custom data type with basic behaviour. He said small objects were not only acceptable, they were desirable (or something along those lines). Bearing this in mind I think maybe a simple bean called Email that can be injected into other beans that need it and only methods it would have was a getter, a setter and validate() I'd be interested what others think about this. Is it a good way to go or is it overkill? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CFCDev" group.
