Assume we introduce namespaces, do things 'Properly' and introduce
Core.FileUtils
Core.StringUtils
(the names are just examples, to make a point)
Now let's take example existing routines such as
ExtractFilePath
ExtractFileName
Where do we put them ?
Both units are a candidate. The former because it is about filenames.
The latter because they are purely string operations.
Your namespace doesn't solve this problem.
ExtractFilePath/ExtractFileName sounds more related to file operations, so:
Please guys....
You are completely missing the point. It is AN EXAMPLE.
The point was that namespaces do not solve the problem of where to put a
routine and how to easily find it. I could probably find many other
routines.
And the example replies I got make namespaces even less attractive to
solve that particular problem !
