indra/llvfs/lldir.cpp <http://codereview.secondlife.com/r/91/#comment272> I know we already have a lot of methods taking boolean arguments, but it's probably worth mentioning http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qq/qq13-apis.html#thebooleanparametertrap here. (I.e., boolean arguments make the calls of the method harder to read, when the method name doesn't already imply the semantics of the argument. You can give the reader a hint towards the semantics by using nicely named enums instead.) indra/newview/llappviewer.cpp <http://codereview.secondlife.com/r/91/#comment273> E.g. here, it's impossible to guess what the "true" indicates. Either you already know, or you have to look it up. - Boroondas On Jan. 14, 2011, 1:05 p.m., Aleric Inglewood wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
