This yields all sorts of efficiency problems, among other things. I haven't done much with Java (aside from some Android work), but I've seen this with programmers in some other languages too. Sometimes people seem to like to make a bunch of different classes to handle different parts of the behavior, and abstract things into the various classes and to interfaces, etc., and that at least makes it more difficult to learn the codebase for someone new. Sometimes, such designs seem overly complicated. Nightfox --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux * Origin: Digital Distortion: digdist.synchro.net (21:1/137) .
