I wish I could do a direct quote, but I loaned out the book that I want to quote from. The book is, "Guerilla Tactics For An Imperfect World" by Christopher Duncan. The author described how he was mad at being forced to use hungarian notation at one job and resisted it as much as he could. But once he got used to it, it found it really useful and found that it actually prevented some problems from showing up... and now he always wants to use it!
I'm reminded of a guy here, an old Ada programmer, who insists that we should not be using pointers in our C++ code. You see, if it isn't *his* way, and the way he's been doing it for years, then it can't be useful. _______________________________________________ msvc mailing list [email protected] See http://beginthread.com/mailman/listinfo/msvc_beginthread.com for subscription changes, and list archive.
