Where do you go to read good examples of source code? @Cris I don't disagree, but I will note that there's a lot to be learned from reading bad code as well. Arguably, reading and following bad code is even tougher than diving into a properly organized project. (And this is before we get into trying to figure out what "good" code is. :)) |

Programming SOLID Principles Can you summarize the most useful parts of the article here? No need to copy it verbatim, but just some key points would be great in case the link ever goes dead. |

Should I pay my developers for bugs fixes for a project or work that's still in progress? Irrelevant domain is irrelevant. |

What's the term for re-implementing an old API in terms of a newer API @psr I went with a general diagram. Doesn't terribly matter what the interface is. It can be borrowed from API v1.0 or not. |

What's the term for re-implementing an old API in terms of a newer API @dodgy_coder This'd be the typical approach, but the principle is the same. Normally, you wouldn't be able to modify API v1.0's source, so you'd create a separate adapter. All that really matters, though, is that your code calls methods in a class you control and can update. This also sets you up for moving to v1.2, 1.5, 2.0, whatever. :) |
