I recently added a bunch of Builders in various places and used "with" as the setter method prefix.
We have a mix of "set" and "with" in our Builders ATM. I am thinking of going back and changing the builders I added since 2.7 from "with" to "set". I am liking "set" better because: - More standard than "with" - Therefore IDEs like Eclipse, by default will not generate warnings for setter methods when the param name is the same as the ivar (the param name is hidding a field) - Easier to remember to type "s" for "set" when using code completion - shorter than "set" I still like "with" ONLY in the case when a NEW object is generated, which is usually not (never?) the case in our Builders. Any thoughts?
