Bunian

In Bunian we needed to use a static constructor for some reason, it was all going good; we tested the code and it ran smoothly…excellent (Code Coverage anyone?!). But when I came across this situation, it appeared that the static constructor wasn’t invoked!even when “Class.Method();” is called! so lets examine it. I have two simple classes as an Example: public class Parent { public static string DoSomething() { return “Parent: DoSomething() called”; } } public class Child : Parent { ...

But the problem is that in order to get out with the best solution ever (damn perfectionism!), we kept coming up with different solutions, and overriding them with other solutions every once in a while, and this kept going like forever! ...

 Lately we have decided in Bunian to move on to NHibernate 2.0, and the contributor assigned to the move started out, only to send an email one day after: “THERE IS NO DOCUMENTATION!’. We had errors as a result to the move which couldn’t be fixed without a documentation explaining why this happened.
