I just uploaded a new version of DummyCreator. This new version features a build-in cache for methods, increasing the performance of object-creation by approximate 25-50% in my first tests.
You can find the download on the project’s googlecode page: http://code.google.com/p/dummycreator
In the process of software development there is often the need for dummy object. One of the main reasons for their usage is the fact, that a database or another data-provider might not be ready or available in the current stage of development.
Normally a developer would implement some methods to create those dummy objects with random data. If you have many classes, this might become a quick time-consuming task. A good solution would be a library, which creates those objects automatically.
