I'd be curious to see in-the-wild instances of the anti-pattern that you
are talking about, then.
Many (if not most) GUI frameworks use this pattern.
button = Button("text")
button.setForegroundColor(...)
button.setBackgoundColor(...)
button.setFont(...)
button.setRelief(...)
button.setBorder(...)
button.setWidth(...)
button.setAction(...)
button.setMouseListener(...)
button.place(...)
Another example is running a subprocess in Unix-like systems.
fork()
open/close file descriptors, set limits, etc
exec*()
According to Steven's criteria, neither of these are instances of the
anti-pattern because there are good reasons they are this way. He is reducing
the anti-pattern to just those cases where there is no reason for doing so. That
is why I asked for in-the-wild instances. I should have qualified my sentence to
include "according to your criteria" because people seem to be answering my
query out of that context.
