The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

I learned from a senior system's analyst today that you should never pass a class you created back from a webservice. Since he was wanting to pass a dataset back and also the exception message if one occurred, he decided it was better to send back an empty dataset and have the webservice write a file to the users machine if it generated an error! Why couldn't I think of that!!! Sigh | :sigh:
