Re: OO design: returning string and/or special value

If you have a method that returns SCALAR, in this case, I assume it should also be an object. Converting that object to string format should be responsibility of that object's class. not method() that returns that SCALAR responsibility.

Since OP does not specify anything, I'm making assumption, anything non-simple SCALAR (number/string) should be already objectified if OP is using OOD approach.	[reply]
