Forgot to say: * Constants for numeric codes are great as they make the code a whole lot easier to read:
$error_level:=5 Well that's good to know...I guess. Is that good or bad? With a custom consant: $error_level:=Error level is fatal Oh, that makes more sense. * Constants for strings as they make @$%@#$%@#% stupid errors from typos a thing of the past, well, at least where they use them. This is super helpful when working with property names in C_OBJECT. (Really what we need are definable schemas for C_OBJECT contents that the compiler checks - custom types - but that's a whole different discussion.) More examples? Good uses? ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **********************************************************************
