I have a bunch of Foo objects, all of which are controlled by a FooManager. What would you name an object that controls a collection of FooManagers?

It's bloody obvious FooFighters!

If you follow the conventions used in the .NET Framework: class name: FooManagerCollection. property name: FooManagers (for a property that returns a FooManagerCollection). By using the suffix "Collection", you're also indicating that the class behaves like a collection, so you might want to base it on CollectionBase. As that class predates generics, you might also want to implement ICollection<FooManager> and IList<FooManager> (this may happen automagically with CollectionBase now - I actually never tested that - but I suspect not).

Yep, that's what I originally chose. I was wondering someone had a better idea. Thanks, /ravi

Actually it's not a collection. Foo, FooManager and a FooManagerController (the name I originally came up with) are all processes in a distributed system. /ravi

Right. I second the FooManagerController suggestion then. Although some of the other suggestions are clearly more fun. Why not FooBar? It has a nostalgic ring to it...

FooFoo :-) I must admit that sounded funnier in my head than it looks in print. Oh well.

Ummmm... I think the CP community just killed your server... scalability issues, anyone? In any case... nice name choice! Is your K&R also still sitting next to you in a bookshelf? Mine is (next to me, that is). :-)

Nah... DNS lookup failure - route66.net name servers seem down. Not your fault (?).
