I found the following definition:
"A convenience method is an operation on an object that could be accomplished by a program
consisting of more basic operations on the object. Convenience methods are usually provided to
make the API easier and simpler to use or to allow specific programs to create more optimized
implementations for common operations. A similar definition holds for a convenience property."


Thanks,

Subject: [Juglist] what is a convenience method?

I keep coming across methods which are called "convenience" methods in their documentation. Gosh, I'm glad. I mean I'd hate for a method to be inconvenient.

What does this mean?

Thanks,
Rich
