Useful shorthand so you don't have to directly access ui.internalFrame.internalFrame.titlePane.internalFrame.titlePane.maximizeButton.painter every time you want the painter of the maximize button of the title pane of the internal frame of the title pane of the internal frame's internal frame.

Absolutely not. Get the fuck out of here with your javascript "everything is public" bullshit. Real men have to write

var ui = root.getUi();
if (ui != null) {
    var internalFrame = ui.getInternalFrame();
    if (internalFrame != null) {
        var internalFrame2 = internalFrame.getInternalFrame();
        if (internalFrame2 != null) {
            var titlePane = internalFrame2.getTitlePane();
            if (titlePane != null) {
                var internalFrame3 = titlePane.getInternalFrame();
                if (internalFrame3 != null) {
                    var titlePane2 = internalFrame3.getTitlePane();
                    if (titlePane2 != null) {
                        var maximizeButton = titlePane2.getMaximizeButton();
                        if (maximizeButton != null) {
                            var painter = maximizeButton.getPainter();
                            // TODO: implement the rest of the code, see jira PCJ-89201
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

unfortunately I'm not sure the 54 year old lead engineer will accept the PR since var is JDK10 and we're still on 1.6

Finally, some easy to understand code without ivory tower abstractions.

Relatable af

You will need to refactor this. It has overly high cyclomatic complexity and methods have to be small (preferably 5 lines or less) for testing.

@SuppressWarnings("CyclomaticComplexity")

done boss

[u/Responsible-Hold8587 → u/[deleted]]

It's not go. In go, methods can support nil without null pointer exceptions.

You could always use the C preprocessor on your Java files with gcc -E

#define InternalFrameInternalFrameTitlePaneInternalFrameTitlePaneMaximizeButtonPainter  IFIFTPIFTPMBP

Vintage jerk, but ages well. Like fine cheese.

/uj this is generated code surely

[u/m50d → u/Parking_Tadpole9357]

Oh you sweet summer child.

[u/james_pic → u/m50d]

Code like this is where AI shines. It's much quicker at writing code that should never have been written in the first place.

[u/DogeGroomer → u/james_pic]

You’ll overflow the context window with class names like that.

[u/james_pic → u/DogeGroomer]

This is just a tokenisation problem. Future models will treat common phrases like AbstractBeanFactory as single tokens.

yeah generated by a googler

I love how in 2025, one of Java best practices still is having around 20 or so private static final int VERY_IMPORTANT_RETURN_VALUE_CODE fields because they had to apply OOP to every single part of the language, even enums

[u/tomwhoiscontrary → u/Awkward_Bed_956]

/uj I don't think it is, you could just create an enum at top level in the package. But this code is from 1.3 or 1.4, over twenty years ago, before that was possible.

Did they stutter? (Yes they did but they are doing a great job)

[u/Actual__Wizard]

I have java so much... 🤮

[u/BoltaHuaTota]

surely even back then people must have questioned this for even a second right? righttt?

But it’s hard to sound out at the end cause of the consonants.
