Regardless of skill level they can then maintain the app, because face to face communication works better than written documentation. That's great, but it's not a solution for everything. What happens when a consultancy develops and delivers an application to a customer, who will maintain it in the future? What happens to applications which just don't get that much maintenance? I was just contacted this week about an .NET assembly I'd built five years ago that interacts with Adobe Connect's API. I didn't remember whether it had the ability to change a user's password in an external system, because it wasn't part of the specification (and therefore wasn't part of the test). Turns out that the API call used to create a user also works to modify that users, so the user of the assembly can just use the same method call. You seem to be staking a lot on saying no one ever needs comments, anywhere, for any reason and I just don't see why that's the hill you want to die on. Comments are not the exclusive solution to writing maintainable code, no one's saying they are, but they do provide something very simple that TDD and pair programming do not - the ability to explain your intent to any future reader of that source code.

Re: Remove all CF comments
I dont understand what's the problem with comments anyway.So what if we have comments peppered through the code?Do they slow down processing in any significant way?Yes, they cause the files to be somewhat larger, but if all that means is a bit more disk space gets used, so what?If they reduce maintenance cost because its quicker for other developers to maintain the code later on, that must surely more than offset any overhead due to the existence of comments. I get that the tests in TDD are a good way to see what's happening (or supposed to happen) in code. But whats the problem if there are comments in there too? (Assuming they're accurately reflecting what's going on in the code - if they're misleading because they reflect old or trial versions of the logic, that's bad but none of us is talking about that are we?) I just dont understand why this is even a discussion in the first place. As someone who often has to work on code that others have built before me (and normally aren't around to ask questions of) I can testify that comments make any program file MUCH MUCH MUCH easier to work on. As I said earlier in this thread, I once had to work on a 1500 line convoluted file, with nested cfif clientiD = peppered through it, just to change some text being displayed. It took me hours to find the exact line I had to correct because it wasnt every instance of the text in the file, but only one that had to be changed. It certainly didn't justify spending ages and ages looking through the whole logic of the application just to make a little tweak. A few comments here or there would have meant it cost the client a fraction of what I billed him for my time for that little job, then i could have got on to another much more important job he wanted done. You dont want comments in your code? I get that. Dont know why you dont, but I get it. But I'm a contractor who does a lot of temp work on existing code bases not written by me.I know I go a lot faster when I have comments I can read. Yes, I can read code, and I can write code. But the comments make it a LOT faster for me to work out what I'm working on and how to make the change I'm asked to do.

Re: Remove all CF comments
I will add my 2p that uncommented code drives me nuts. when you have to work on an app you have never seen before the lack of any useful comments usually results in it taking many x longer to figure stuff out and get up and running with the app. If you have a load a load of documentation and tests distributed with the app then than of course can help too, but this is usually not the cas ein my experience, any docs and tests are on someone else's computer somewhere and not distributed with the app at all.

Re: Remove all CF comments
First to the original poster, there is a way to do this but I would be asking why you would want to first. With comments being used for annotated validation for hyrule, to annotated comments for ORM. If it is just to purely find code that has been commented out, and needs removing then a search and look method is perhaps the best option. Secondly to the argument of TDD and comments. Let me first clear up that TDD and BDD and tests in general, are there to code coverage our code. So that there is no unexpected problems in the future, TDD and BDD are primarily for input and output. That doesn't mean you can't comment on the tests to say what ever you like to say. But tests will not cover the likes of known bugs and work around's to achieve such results, Now I have comments that as stated above are for annotated validation for hyrule. And although they are tested through TDD, they are still comments. Secondly, I have rest / web services that describe what is being returned from third parties. These are not covered by tests and my part as it is not my code, but the comments make it very clear what is returned in the body of the function. In that example the calls to the rest and web services, are not affecting the final output of the result returned, where tests cover that. But it does let the developer know that while in there making changes they can see the expected results and any further outcomes to the code. Sorry but I am on the side that comments are a big and necessary thing, that even I will admit to not doing enough off, but required in more cases than not. TDD is not the place to dictate why something was written the way it was written, its job is to secure and pass on anything that is / might be passed into that is not expected and cope with a return result. How would these tests know why I wrote certain code the way that I did, because of trying to get around a known issue? Would I place that comment in the tests, no I would not, the comment is related to the way the function behaves and not if it passes or fails because someone wants to ignore the comments. -- Regards, Andrew Scott WebSite: http://www.andyscott.id.au/ Google+: http://plus.google.com/108193156965451149543 ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:350184 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Remove all CF comments
Mike, some arguments are comments are: 1) Repeats what's already obvious. For example: !--- Loops over my crap --- cfloop index=x from=1 to=#arrayLen(crap)# 2) Easy to become outdated. For example, a comment that says something like, This hunts for bears using a shotgun whereas the code was modified to hunt for bears using blunt toothpicks. Maybe another developer made that change and simply didn't feel like updating the code. The book, Clean Code (http://www.amazon.com/Clean-Code-Handbook-Software-Craftsmanship/dp/0132350882), has a whole chapter on it. Now to be clear, I don't actually agree with all the points.

Re: Remove all CF comments
I have certainly seen my fair share of bad comments. commented out comments. blocks of code which have been commented out and disabled but the comments are still there for that disabled code and have not been updated. comments for code which no longer exists. but it all comes down to the same thing really, poor documentation and commenting, regardless of the end result. I tend to put very simple comments in code, for anything major or for apps that were likley to be maintained by someone else I wrote documentation and refer to that in the code using in page header comments.
