"Code First" versus "Contract First" at java.net

Mon, 08/14/2006 - 08:41 — charlie.collins

I had to weigh in an an article I noticed at Java.net. The article is an Axis2 howto that espouses "contract first" as being a much better way to do development than "contract first". To that I say pshaaaaw! (And it just so happens the article was written by one of the Axis2 developers.)

Contract-First Web Services with Apache Axis2

My thoughts on the issue are in the comment threads to the java.net article, to sum up, CODE FIRST if your expertise is code then use it (the "contract" details can be an interface IN the code).
