That guy tricked you. He wrote a code generator (which he hides from you, and the boss) to generate such long lines of code, and thus he earns lots of money since he gets paid for lines of code.

See... This is what happens when a developer writes in VB for too long.. 
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

What's worse is that this is obviously just one part of a very messy inline-SQL generation procedure... Since this would only make one part of a WHERE clause, there are no doubt similar structures elsewhere that you're not showing us...
VB, plus messy inline-SQL generation... ick.

Don't feel too bad about it, yours was pretty horrible too.

Thanks... that's, uh, comforting.

I was the one that formatted it!  You should have seen what it looked like before. I won't post it because it's way too large, but trust me, it was pretty bad!

I am not at all surprised that the original code was not nicely formated. Which means that the original code had no redeeming features.
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

Eeeegads!
This code is why code reviews were invented.
That programmer should be forced to keep working on that until it's fixed, that way you at least contain them and stop them doing this elsewhere.
If they haven't fixed it after a week, fire their ass.
Whoever the developers were that let it through a code review...Fire their asses too.
Of course I jest.
There wasn't a code review, there never is in these situations. So fire whoever is responsible for ensuring there are code reviews.
If nobody is responsible for ensuring there are code reviews, fire the person responsible for ensuring that there is a person responsible for ensuring that there are code reviews.
When you've recursively made your way to the top of the Org Chart and fired everyone and the company no longer exists, this mess of code will have served it's purpose.

... where they breed such ingenious people?
I have a similar thing here. Thousands of lines in one (static) method which are supposed to generate each and every database query the entire application may need. A nightnare to debug...

Where did you get this stuff?  Didn't teachers in university/college tell that you need to split a job into smaller chunks like subfunctions?

The reason I'll go home now (for today):
public SendAction(final Mail oMail, final boolean probe) {
this(oMail);
setText("Send Probe");
send_as_probe = true;
}
public SendAction(final Mail oMail, final int later) {
this(oMail);
setText("Send Later");
send_later = true;
}
Nice. It's pretty clever (sort of  )- someone wanted to call the same object in another way...
see'ya tomorrow... need to go home and daze my programming mind with some beer...

right - that helps most times. Did I mention that I live really close to a German Biergarten[^]
I sorted out all of the booleans (there were some more in the deeper code...) and deleted 2 constructors in this Action.
public SendAction(){
setId(SendAction.ID);
}
public SendAction(final Mail oMail, final SendMode oSendMode) {
this();
}

I spotted it! Line 71 is using PHP.
This is not the age of reason, this is the age of flummery, and the day of the devious approach. Reason’s gone into the backrooms where it works to devise means by which people can be induced to emote in the desired direction.

Programming is a race between programmers trying to build bigger and better idiot proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots, so far... the universe is winning.
