Yep, this code is in production....

There must be some weird, hacky explanation for it right?

@alexbrooklyn I really want to believe that 😝

TO type ... Wtf

Shite code = pressured work || lack of knowledge. There may be more reasons but I am actually wondering what caused this mess 🤔

What the fuck is TO?

Don't touch that shit, nothing good will come from it.

@jAsE-Official I guess it means type output

@pacjent3444 in this Case, I would say it was lack of knowledge. Doing the correct way would be faster

TO = Template Object???

Why are there break statements if you are just going to return. Why not just return?

Also noted the obvious, wtf is a TO type.

I dunno java

In slovak language means "To" = it
Check if the person wo wrote this code isn't from Slovakia or Czech republic, maybe he just froget he should write in english 😂

It's C# guys. TO is the generic type parameter where it has a constraint that the type you specify must implement the IConvertible interface. You can call it like GetFilterValue<int>() and make it return an int. TO could've been any name. Starting a type parameter with T is the convention in C#. The author clearly didn't know about pattern matching.
