Emne: RE: Strong parameter checking

< I'm curious to find out how.  I would have thought a strongly typed language 
would have been *more* difficult to refactor, for the same rasons that it can 
take longer to develop using them i.e. they can prevent certain object 
interactions due to their enforcement of data types, and thus leads to 
additional code being written which conforms to these constraints. >

True, but on the other hand, if you change, say, a method signature, a compiler 
can spot every place in which a change is needed. Furthermore, if you change 
the name of a function or class member or the order in which parameters are 
sent to a function, a tool such as VS can do the refactoring for you 
automatically.

Still, I guess the answer to the question of development speed and 
strong/static vs weak typing is: "it depends" =)

Eyvind.
