Apparently there is no limit to naming conventions for method

[thedavejay]

public void SettingDeviceList_ReAddingAPreviouslyDeletedDevice_MustAddDevicesToRuleDevicesWithIsDeletedFalseAndIsIncludedTrue()
{
return;
}

I feel like crying. X|

It's a bit of an anti-climax when you actually get to the code, isn't it? :-D

Ideological Purity is no substitute for being able to stick your thumb down a pipe to stop the water

[Chris Meech]

All it's missing is an inline. :)

Yeah, its like climbing Rapunzel's tower to find out that she is actually a he.

[Brisingr Aerowing]

:(( :wtf: :(( :wtf: :(( :wtf: :(( Is that even called somewhere?!??! On thinking, it might be a stub that never got filled in for some reason, but the name is absolutely unreasonably ridiculously insanely crazy!

public class SysAdmin : Employee
{

 public override void DoWork(IWorkItem workItem)
 {
      if (workItem.User.Type == UserType.NoLearn){
         throw new NoIWillNotFixYourComputerException(new Luser(workItem.User));
      }else{
           base.DoWork(workItem);
      }
 }

}

Well, it will be inlined for sure by the compiler in release mode.

Look on the bright side - it's broken up into easily manageable chunks by _'s Imagine it was not...

[kdgupta87]

that person can make us pseudo code IDE, SDK everything, he just need some little motivation

[YvesDaoust]

Another bright side: you can harmlessly bypass the call :) Function name decoration can also create nice monsters (you can face them when wrapping DLLs), but this is another story.

This looks to me like a unit testing attempt, similar to the recommendations in "The Art of Unit Testing" : featureundertest_when_expectation Usually these methods are long, but they are supposed to be read like a sentence.

Make it simple, as simple as possible, but not simpler.

[Member 2493768]

How about this test method: AnalyseSchoolHistoryForConflicts_SchoolHistoryHasStartDateAndEndDateAndIncomingItemStartDateIsInbetween_DatesOverlapWarningAdded() This is a unit test method. It says what it's testing, the scenario and the expected outcome.

In this case, she is actually a he, and he's an inflatable doll.

Nice ans well, but I expect some rcommendation any time now that will tell us to wear feathers on our heads and chant while dancing around the computer.

At least artificial intelligence already is superior to natural stupidity

[R_L_H]

You guys have obviously never written any objective C. The following method signature (without defined parameter names) is a legit initializer method from the Apple code base for the NSBitmapImageRep[^][] object. God only knows what some users have made.

initWithBitmapDataPlanes:pixelsWide:pixelsHigh:bitsPerSample:samplesPerPixel:hasAlpha:isPlanar:colorSpaceName:bitmapFormat:bytesPerRow:bitsPerPixel:

:confused: :wtf: X| :laugh:

Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

[Michael Kingsford Gray]

What is actually so bad about this? The length only? If yes, then WTF? You are kvetching about length? Why? If not, then fill it in here: __________________________

[BobJanova]

The length is a WTF because it makes it unreadable.

[Michael Kingsford Gray]

Eh? Unreadable in what sense? I can read quite clearly, as well as understand the intent. Long names are inherently self-documenting. I sincerely do NOT understand your response. To me, tersely abbreviated names are not only unreadable, but quite unnecessary in this day-and-age of auto-completion.

[Gary Wheeler]

I've used support software from a certain hardware manufacturer. I think their software was written by an intern. All of the names are of the form:

#define ACR1_ACR2_ACR3_..._ACRN 0x........

where each ACR_i_ is a three or four letter acronym for a hardware signal or state. Some of the names are well over 100 characters long, and completely unreadable.

[Lost User]

Considering the most common coding convention argues for 80-character lines, and given that only the method name contains 113 characters I would say yes, it is very unreadable.
