    Yes, i posted it in The Lounge last night. A Soapboxy rant, full of rambling stories, dubious correlations, and tales of substance abuse. :-\

        I am designing a set of objects that perform the same data export task, but differ in versions, or implementation.  They share fixed, common aspects I think fit well in a base class.  I'm having trouble naming these objects; the best I've got so far is ExportEngine, Exporter just doesn't seem right.  Any suggestions?

        'John'is always a good startng point. You can develope from this 'big John', 'fat John' and so on describing objects with names that, even if they dont describe exactly what their function is, do at least make them familiar, which is half the battle.

          Why in the soapbox? Anyway, name the common elements something (ie BradysFormat) and then call it a Writer as in BradyFormatWriter.

            Sounds like you need an ExporterFactory, or possibly an ExporterProvider and ExporterProviderBase.

            Thanks Pete, I think I'll go with ExportTestProvider, as the class uses an Export class to perform test exports.
