I'm having a problem with naming a method for a database application.
In my Database instance, I have a method that can remove an
Agreement object from the database. However, I want to be able to remove multiple Agreements at once, to be able to use transactions. The problem is that I also have an overload to remove a single
Agreement object.
Essentially, my structure is like this:
public class Database
{
// ...
public void RemoveAgreement(Agreement a)
{
// ...
}
public void RemoveAgreement(IEnumerable<Agreement> agreements)
{
// ...
}
}
But this can be confusing, as the overload with the list of Agreements has a singular name, despite being inherently plural.
My question is, how should I structure this? Should I have two overloads with the name RemoveAgreement(), or RemoveAgreements()? Or should I use two separate methods, instead of overloads?
Thanks.
