var abuse
-
I'm so pissed of by
varabusers. They do not understand that are making code unreadable, for what, writingvarinstead ofstring? Having the same problems in your company? ex.var metadataValues = new List<object>();
foreach (var metadataDefName in metadataDefNames)
{
var name = metadataDefName;
// Search definition with the same name.
var metadata = metadataCollection.FirstOrDefault(
metadataDef => String.Equals(metadataDef.MetaData.Name, name, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase));
...Cheers!

I suppose it depends upon how you intend to use it but that does seem a little lazy if you know what the type will be beforehand. var (C# Reference)[^]

varis good for LINQ but I'd avoid it in most other places for clarity. -

var list = new List(); is good var x = GetStuff(); is not good
-
var list = new List(); is good var x = GetStuff(); is not good
List list=new List();is only one extra character to type, and is clearer IMO. -
var list = new List(); is good var x = GetStuff(); is not good
And why? I can understand some cases in which you want to make code more compact, as
List myName = new List();
to use a
var myName = new List();
or as mentioned before in cases that you do not know the return type. But using always
varonly because of laziness, just pisses me of! -
varis good for LINQ but I'd avoid it in most other places for clarity.I totally agree with you. And when people start abusing of
varmakes me go raging bull! -
List list=new List();is only one extra character to type, and is clearer IMO.Declarations get a lot more complex than that and it is wasteful to repeat it on both sides.

Or you are using ReSharper and tell it to autofix the "problems" in your code.
Forgive your enemies - it messes with their heads

It's VB creep: The bits of VB that mean that you don't have to think about what you are doing are slowly being introduced to C#. Coming soon: "On Error Resume Next" Then it will be time to go back to C++ because C# will be mostly used by lazy idiots who don't care a fig for maintenance.
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Manfred R. Bihy: "Looks as if OP is learning resistant."

Is there a function in ReSharper that teaches up colleagues not doing it? :) I tried in many ways to explain why of some practices, even tried to make them read the book as http://www.amazon.com/Practical-Guidelines-Practices-Developers-Pro-Developer/dp/0735621721[^] but nothing. The most difficult think is to convince people to change! But without the passion for your job, it is a difficult task (to change).

I think you're right. But I hope not! Recently I helped on a badly written project in VB.NET and it was a nightmare.

I thought it was "On Error GoTo Hell" Oh well, I never attend VB class in the second year of my high school
You can flame me whichever way you want and I wouldn't care a bit. But if you group me with some idiots, I'll turn into your worst nightmare.

I agree, I've seen code here with var used everywhere (C#), complained to the SW Architect, he sent out an email saying it sould only be used where required. It's the newest, youngest guy in the place using it most. It's F***in sloppy, lazy sh*t!

Ah, I wondered what happened to the generics bit on my OP How is it sloppy and lazy?

You know what the variable type is, so declare it!

Why? What is the point of repeating information?
