Liked it. I winced a bit at looking at the inheritance implementation of the adapter pattern, I don't think i'd EVER go that route, i think delegation makes sense. This is a much better article than that cursed 'Set/Get is evil'article. Thank god they have a larger pool for article authors than the one guy who write THAT piece of trash....but I digress.

Good article.

Bro, Take a bill and relax ... and yes Allen Holub is quite right in saying that setters and getters are EVIL.

The sub-title of Allen's article says (that is if you've even bothered to read it) "Make your code more maintainable by avoiding accessors" and maintainability, is CERTAINLY one of the MAIN reasons why we do OO Design.

I have read all of Allen's great articles (specially the masterpiece Object Oriented GUI series) and became a great admirer and learned a great deal from his extensive experience in OO design.

Allen please don't pay attention to guys like "Chris" and keep educating us "less experienced" programmers so we can save our customers money and time by making our code maintainable and extensible etc…

Thanks Allen and Booooo to "Mr. Trash Mouth".
