Libraries

[Michael Mattias]

The secret (??) is to restructure your code libraries so that they use procedures (SUBs or FUNCTIONs) with parameters instead of variable names.

This is not the same thinking as cut-and-paste, but once you've made the investment in creating the routines, the payoff in time saved is enormous.

Hi Brian

what I do is prefix all functions and constants with a descriptive
name. The filename and the prefix are identical.

For example:

%UTIL_CONSTANT1 = 1
util_DoFunc()

etc..

This works for me.


Cheers

I refer to a Wish List and Bug Report. I have found lots of bugs
in PBDLL and, each time I find one, an extensive examination reveals
I put them there myself.
My request is for info on setting up a library of routines that
can be included in various programmes without having to mess around
changing things like variable names.
I often include bits of code from one programme when writing another
but there seems a lot of messing around to get it to work.
Does anyone have any "secret" to having a library from which one can
simply "include" a block of code?
Regards,
Brian.
