Obfuscation of public method parameters

Aspose.Cells Product Family

Hi Aspose


We have observed that upgrading from aspose 8.8.3 to 17.4.0 have changed the names of the public method parameters.

Version 8.8.3
public Cell get(int row, int column) {
}

Version 17.4.0
public abstract Cell get(int arg0, int arg1){
}

This doesn’t exactly make the API easier to use. Can you please change this back to readable parameter names? We are using Netbeans 8.1.

Hi,


Thanks for the details.

Well, we found the change as you mentioned regarding methods’ parameter names. But we are not sure if we could recover the older behavior or not. I have logged a ticket with an id “CELLSJAVA-42275” for your issue. Our concerned developer from product team will analyze it and do some investigations for it.

Once we have an update on it, we will let you know here.

Thank you.

Hi Amjad


I sure hope you’ll be able to recover the parameter names. The API is a pain to use after this changed. I have to skim the JavaDoc in order to tell what parameter is what. This is really a downgrade, and costs development time.
