I don't think that looking at code will help you to develop a sense of best practices. There are books written on the subject that will help much more than attempting to glean such information from code. Especially since code is the end-product of the practices, not the other way around.

Hi, I am not questioning quality of opens source projects. My intention is to learn from looking at the source code of open source projects. I want to know whether it is good to learn from looking at the source code of this kind of projects. I want to develop best coding practices and know how things work and how to implement it. To learn it, the cheap way available to me is looking at code written by some experts. I believe people who wrote Tomcat,JSTL and other have godd knowledge of Java. Is there anything wrong in doing such things ? rgds Antony Paul. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
