Your Formatter object isn't really a formatter then, though, it's more of what I was getting at with the Parsed object idea. I think it is confusing to have a Formatter be something other than a thing that formats, and it's counter-intuitive to have Formatters not be re-usable.
I just have to admit I don't understand this at all. All I do is follow the ideas of Object Oriented design as I understand them. I really don't understand what you mean by not reusable. Sure it is reusable. I think one of us has really misunderstood the fundamentals of OOP, it surely could be me, I don't have a lot of training in computer science, allthough I did go to the University where OO was invented.
