Re: [riena-dev] closable vs. closeable
|
+1 closable
while the JDK contains an interface java.io.Closeable there is also a
method javax.swing.JInternalFrame.isClosable(). I think we can call
that a draw and settle it with a Google Fight:

> Hello everyone,
>
> while implementing closable SubModules I stumbled upon two different ways the word clos(e)able is written in the Riena code. The Extension Points and the NavigationNodes have the version without 'e' and all Controllers etc. with an 'e'.

> After doing some research, the following information unfolded:
> - two native speakers would write it without 'e'
> - most online dictionaries including the Oxford dict only know 'closable'
> - unfortunately Java has the interface 'Closeable'
>
> So the question is: what is your favorite spelling? I think we should at least try to have one common way.

> Btw. my favorite is 'closable'.
