What names do you find yourself prepending/appending to classes regularly? [closed]

问题

Which nouns do you find yourself putting regularly at the end of your classes?

For example, I have a habit of sticking Info onto classes that pass information around but don't do a great deal:

ImportInfo
SiteInfo

Or for Coordinating classes:

UserManager
SecurityManager

I end up using Builder quite often for string related classes, even if it barely does any building:

TemplateBuilder
HtmlBuilder

And of course the timeless Helper/Utility class:

PhraseHelper
NumberUtility
FileHelper

Have you got any good, by which I mean concise and descriptive, nouns or words you regularly use to denote the class' main role?

This question is aimed at the .NET world, but can extend to Java, C++, Python and so on.

回答1:

You can take a look at source-code-wordle.de, I have analyzed there the most frequently used suffixes of class names of the .NET framework and some other libraries.

The top 20 are:

attribute
type
helper
collection
converter
handler
info
provider
exception
service
element
manager
node
option
factory
context
item
designer
base
editor

回答2:

I use Provider and Helper a lot.

回答3:

I append pattern name at the end if i follow one (i.e. FooRepository).
Trying to avoid -Helper, -Manager, -Utils.

回答4:

Util

EnumUtil
ParseUtil
StringUtil
etc ...

回答5:

Base, Reader, Writer, Manager, File.. some others.

回答6:

If my class is specifically doing calculations, I will prepend Calc

Examples:

TaxCalc
TipCalc
DateCalc

回答7:

I find myself sometimes appending the name of the parent class the one I'm writing I want to inherit. Sometimes it sounds weird especially with an Animal example (DogAnimal, FishAnimal, ...) but it makes finding subtypes easier in a list of classes.

回答8:

Factory

Also:

Provider

回答9:

Factory
Helper
Utils
Job
Entity

回答10:

Tests for unit test classes

回答11:

On occasion I use

Target

As in

UploadTarget
ProcessingTarget

I don't think I had before Silverlight / WPF but I now also use

Converter

As in:

CurrentTimeDisplayConverter
TimeDeltaConverter

回答12:

I am often using :

Protocol (Specific protocol implementation)
Manager (Class managing the process)
Emulator (Emulate something...)

回答13:

why of course...

Base

works both sides.

Controller and View.
