*snoopy dance*!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dec. 28th, 2006 12:44 pmI have just checked in code against a CR that has been hanging over my head for five months!!!!!!!!
I had been poking at it every week or so but just could never get a purchase on it. I was convinced I had to finagle my requirements into a massive, messy, incomprehensible, already-existing method--without breaking it for everyone else.
This week, I finally realized that I could do some checking for my conditions and just write a new method for my stuff and let the rest fall through to the old method. But even that didn't quite do it.
Finally, this morning, I moved the new code into a different class, leapfrogging the old messy one altogether. And it works like a champ.

Have a good one!
