So I posted a question in the C# forum trying to figure out why my app settings were not reloading.
My class has properties for each setting:
public bool IsSensorListVisible
{
get { return _IsSensorListVisible; }
set
{
if (_IsSensorListVisible != value)
{
_IsSensorListVisible = value;
save();
}
}
}
.
.
.
Notice the call to Save?? So the CTOR calls Load, which sets each property, which then calls Save...
DOH!!!

This is the very first thing a junior programmer is smacked over the head with -- do not have hidden functionality ESPECIALLY IN PROPERTY SETTERS

Yeah, it must've. I copied it from someone else.

I call it object-reuse!

That's just copy & paste, i.e. code duplication. Object reuse would have been to link to the post containing this "picture".
The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

It's a subclass, actually. Mine is slightly different.

Whehe, nice one; I was wondering why the code you posted would not work, seemed like a simple enough example

A man goes to a pet shop and buys a talking parrot.
He takes the parrot home and tries to teach the parrot how to say a few things, but instead, the parrot just swears at him.
After a few hours of trying to teach the bird, the man finally says, "If you don't stop swearing, I'm going to put you in the freezer as punishment."
The parrot continues swearing, so finally the man puts the bird in the freezer.
About an hour later, the parrot asks the man to please open the door.
As the man takes the scared and shivering bird out of the freezer, it says, "I promise to never swear again. Just tell me what that turkey did!"

Late at night, a burglar breaks into a house. As he slowly moves through the dark rooms, a voice comes out of the darkness.
"Jesus is watching you."
The man jumps, and turns his flashlight on in a panic. The voice is coming from a parrot! The burglar moves over to the cage.
"Hi birdie! What's your name?"
"Satan", the parrot replies.
"What kind of people name their parrot 'Satan'?" the burglar asks the bird.
"The kind that name their Rottweiler 'Jesus'".

You are going to have to have prospered quite a bit to get one...but I don't think I'll live long enough to do that.
