Just saw this in a description for some reasonably well known (and free) software:
"This will only have an effect on the requiredness of the attributes..." Yes, "requiredness". It could almost pass for a real word! However it does describe the requiredinization of certain attributes well, I suppose... Due to my odd sense of humour, I do find this pretty funny, bit it's also a reminder for those people who hire programmers to write software who may not speak the intended language as well as you'd like: it's a good idea to proof read all of the docs and descriptions before final payment! cheers Sam |

It is a real word, if you're a software developer.
https://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infoc..._getfldreq.htm The requiredness of fields and parameters is part of the normal technical vocabulary for object-oriented programmers of the Grady Booch school. |

Well I am actually a software developer, but I guess I must have missed that in my dev dictionary!
Or maybe it's because I don't program in VBScript and Perl? Either way, interesting! I've learned a new word! And in that case, I'm laying claim to coining the term "requiredinization" as listed in my original post. And "requiredinizationing", which is the performance of making an act required. ![]() cheers Sam |
