CodeSOD: Units of Software

    "there are many days when I think that my company simply hired our development team because they were fast typists."

    "It's not as if we're paid by the line of code, but our management team is run by a couple MBAs that love to quantify everything. And as we all know, nothing quantifies programmer productivity better than the 'units of software' delivered. And speaking of a unit of software, here's a valuable one put together by one of my more 'productive' colleagues.

    Public Function makeBoolean(ByVal b As Boolean)
    Return b
    End Function

    Public Function makeByte(ByVal b As Byte)
    Return b
    End Function

    Public Function makeChar(ByVal c As Char)
    Return c
    End Function

    Public Function makeDate(ByVal d As Date)
    Return d
    End Function

    Public Function makeDecimal(ByVal d As Decimal)
    Return d
    End Function

    Public Function makeDouble(ByVal d As Double)
    Return d
    End Function

    Public Function makeInteger(ByVal i As Integer)
    Return i
    End Function

    Public Function makeLong(ByVal l As Long)
    Return l
    End Function

    Public Function makeObject(ByVal o As Object)
    Return o
    End Function

    Public Function makeSByte(ByVal s As SByte)
    Return s
    End Function

    Public Function makeShort(ByVal s As Short)
    Return s
    End Function

    Public Function makeSingle(ByVal s As Single)
    Return s
    End Function

    Public Function makeString(ByVal s As String)
    Return s
    End Function

    Public Function makeString2(ByVal s As String)
    Return s.ToString()
    End Function

    Public Function makeUInteger(ByVal u As UInteger)
    Return u
    End Function

    Public Function makeULong(ByVal u As ULong)
    Return u
    End Function

    Public Function makeUShort(ByVal u As UShort)
    Return u
    End Function
