My main problem is method names, although others have asked for longer variable names and I've got nothing against them either. I make more methods than variables. For more details, see the thread: http://forums.4d.fr/Post/EN/18946884/0/0/ The worst for me is meaningless variable names.

As to why 31 characters is not enough, it's because some (a lot?) of us use part of the name to create a pseudo-namespace prefix. That burns up a lot of characters but brings huge benefits. So, the remaining character limit (in my case) is 20 characters already.... ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **********************************************************************
