Re: [Pharo-users] best naming practices for (file) format reading/writing

Not really but it would be nice to collect them. On Sat, Jul 22, 2017 at 1:05 PM, Peter Uhnak <i.uhnak@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

I've seen (and I use) different naming conventions when reading/writing from files/streams...

e.g.

MyReader new readFromStream: aStream. "-> aModel" MyWriter new writeToStream: aModel. "-> aStream"

or

(MyReader new on: aStream) upToEnd. "-> aModel" (MyWriter new on: aStream) nextPut: aModel. "-> aStream"

or

MyReader new fromString: aString. "-> aModel" MyReader new toString: aModel. "-> aString"

etc. (optionally with class-side methods for convenience).

Do we have some best practices/recommendations/conventions regarding this?

Thanks, Peter
