OK - I'm back earlier than normal. So much for taking the full holiday away from the computer - anyway, what a one to come back to. John, why didn't you beat your chest, squat and take a dump on his desk and then tell him that he's not entitled to an opinion until his gonads dropped? Oh - Merry Christmas BTW.

(clap, clap, clap) - very good Pete, much, much better than mine, plus the reference to gonads again is a nice way to close out the year!

Nah - yours was good as well. In fact, it kick started the creative process for me.

Uhm, what happened to you? Did you just finish a chick flick movie marathon? Feeling weepy and inclusive? The real John Simmons would have told him to shut his pie hole, stop breathing, and sit his ass back on down, thank you very much, oh and while you're at it, get me a fresh cup of coffee newbie!

I may end up having to do that, but right now, I'd rather keep my job.

New guy started today, and he's very - ummm - "excited" about coding guidelines. Seems he also doesn't like private member variables since they're "not necessary" in the latest version of C# (and a number of other ideas I don't agree with him on). I suggested that all of the programmers (there are four of us right now) take a small class, and change it to their own style of coding, and then we compare notes in a meeting, taking the best of the lot (in other words, the things we agree on) and establishing a coding style guidelines document.

"...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001Wow - that's likely to be one heck of a meeting! Like others, I'm little surprised you didn't tell him where to put his private member variables! My suggestion is that, after writing your class you should also each write a justification of each style used - so in the meeting it's not just a case of "this is better because I like it better". So - if he likes to use automatic properties (or whatever they are called) and you don't, then each of you will have to justify your reasons - anyone sitting on the fence can then vote after hearing the logic. Sometimes it's pretty difficult for developers to explain why they like a particular style - which can lead you to realise it's just because that's how they've always done it. Just make sure nobody falls for the 'well, it's in the new version so it must be better" - i they do, just mumble WWF or WPF.
If I knew then what I know today, then I'd know the same now as I did then - then what would be the point? .\\axxx (That's an 'M')

Or have any experience with. However, I have never seen a business application succeed after talk began about the importance of Coding Guidelines.

Nothing shits me more than projects where every bloody file is formatted differently. The other thing that shits me to tears is when someone makes a small change to code I wrote and re formats the whole file. When you use a diff to review the change you have to wade through pages of pointless modifications to find the actual change.

With automatic properties that's somewhat true. The private member is created for you. So coding guidelines should be updated to incorporate that feature. If he means there's no longer any use for private member variables then of course he's mistaken and should be thrown out with the rest of the garbage :D
