JDD, Warsjawa, Agile Prague and Cambridge Agile Conferences

Table of Contents

Vacation time is over, and it’s time to get back to hard work :)

I have the privilege to speak at three conferences, so if you would like to meet me and talk, don’t hesitate—join the conferences as soon as possible.

Agile Prague Conference

My first talk will be about refactoring and the concept of Natural Course of Refactoring in Prague on 16th September. There is a big chance that I will show more advanced examples with many tricky and non-trivial transformations. More details about the event can be found at Agile Prague 2014 Sessions.

Agile Cambridge Conference

The second activity will be a workshop on Soft Skills for Tech guys in Cambridge on 2nd October. If you want to learn how to use a very useful model to handle conflicts, just come. More details about the event can be found at Agile Cambridge 2014 Programme.

JDD Conference in Cracow

In addition to that, I will be talking at a great Polish conference in Cracow called JDD, which I have been with for ages (from the beginning). The talks will be held in Polish. The first one will be “How your code speaks to you” and the second one, with Michał Bartyzel, about “Strategic Refactoring”. More details about the event can be found at JDD 2014.

Warsjawa Workshop

Ohh… I forgot. Warsjawa! Yes, there will be a great opportunity to put hands on the keyboard and repair legacy code during the “Working with Legacy Code” workshop. More details about the event can be found here at Warsjawa.

Ouch! Now I realize that it will be a very busy time :)

public class OptionsAwareObject {

    public void updateOptions(String fontName, int fontSize) {  
       options.setFontName(fontName);  
       options.setFontSize(fontSize);  
    }  
}  
   
class Options {  
    private int foregroundColor;  
    private int backgroundColor;  
    private String fontName;  
    private int fontSize;  
    // ...
}

Is updateOptions a good name for this method? Of course not! updateOptions is a general name that suggests a comprehensive update of options. Meanwhile, we are only updating font-related information. The responsibility of the method is thus the change of font-related options. A better name would be:
