I'm going along creating my form, setting control
names w/ a prefix for control type (e.g. lstApps
for a list that will show apps), and I'm happy until
I take a look in the header file. Apparently CW
is not happy letting me choose my own names, it has
generated:
#define MainLstAppsList 1001
Apparently prepending "Main" (the name of the form
containing the lstApps list) and appending "List"
(the control type).
Am I going to have to adjust my own personal style
of coding by dropping my own (long used) control type
identification scheme, or can I modify (or even disable)
this "helpful" behavior of CW?
Basically -- I believe that if a symbol is "xyzzy"
somewhere, it should be "xyzzy" everywhere ... I do
not think that clarity is helped by having something
be "xyzzy" one place and "MungedXyzzyPlonk" somewhere
else.
Or am I the only one that finds this behind-the-scenes
"help" disturbing? I can get used to it if I have
to, but really an ID should be an ID everywhere, right?
Shouldn't I at least have the option as to whether I
get "helped" this way or not?
