The right choice depends on the application.
Abstract base classes and interfaces are recommended by many but actual
projects end up copying everything into one file. Surprising... :-)
I never do this, there is no need. Probably similar to the fact that 90% of
the Delphi programs have all important code in event handlers of the GUI
components. That still doesn't make a good thing.
Glad you give this example. I try for years to convince my fellow
programmers that an event handler should contain at most 1 or 2 lines of
code: a call to a routine that does the actual work, and maybe some status
updating... But old habits die hard :-)
