re TBD section >>1. strongy encourage m_ for instance variables, if only to eliminate having to qualify similarly named assignments like this.variable = variable 2. suggest s_ for statics and allow ALL_CAPS (underscores tolerated for this usage only) for static final (ie literals) << I think that we've talked about most of these before and decided that the prefix notation ala m_ and s_ isn't worth it. Personally, in all the lines of code I've slung thus far in my life, the issue of "this.variable = variable" hasn't ever come up, whereas the problem of people's prefixes reducing the ease with which I read code has. I do agree with ALL_CAPS for static finals, though. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
