Mixed Feelings
Somewhere in a Java source file…
// content does not include the quotes or curly braces around the string!
private String content;
/**
* content includes the quotes or curly braces around the string!
*
* @param content
*/
BibtexString(BibtexFile file, String content) {
super(file);
this.content = content;
}
This code features a self-contradicting couple of comments: “does not include” / “includes” referred to the same object, what can be called a Schroendiger’s String; i.e. until you open the box… hmmm… take a look at the actual code, content is a marvelous data structure able to and not to include the quotes or curly braces around the string at the same time. A look at the actual code, a few lines below, leads to the death of this quantum string, revealing it does not contain the quotes or curly braces around the string.
// is this really a number?
try {
Integer.parseInt(content);
writer.print(content);
} catch (NumberFormatException nfe) {
writer.print('{');
writer.print(content);
writer.print('}');
