Subject: <dumb question ?> What is Foo ??
What is the term Foo ???
I see it all over the place, in most examples : setFoo() getFoo(), Foo.class
, import java.foo.* ??
Is it a generic term used in examples like someone would say MyClass or
myMethod ?
Or am I just passing next to a very important concept ??
This might be a stupid question, but hey, like you never said anything dumb
!!
Thanx for answering me, not knowing won't make me a worse programmer (?) nor
an insomniac, but i don't want to die ignoring this!
Regards, Arnaud D
