Class size. So, how many lines of code is the right amount? Lines of Code has been a classic measurement of productivity, and code quality hasn't it? Today I saw a class [and PARTIAL Class for that matter] that was almost 120 thousand lines of code. Is this RIDONCULOUS or what. Forget for the moment that there are no tests for the entire project, and that it does not pass through a QA test cycle before getting sent to production. This seems to be beyond a code smell. This is a code gut-wretch... </bitchSession> Anyway am hoping to make a positive contribution. Making suggestions for improvement. Suggested class size of 50 lines seems like a pipe goal... but will keep it in mind. And, you got a Test for That btw?? ;-)
