> If anyone has ever encountered any type of problem with the following

>
> I have 3 products that are <very similar> in functionality. In fact, only
> about 3-5 objects are unique to the individual products. These objects
> (including the application object) are placed in their own pbl (let's call
> them prod1.pbl, prod2.pbl and prod3.pbl). All the other .pbls are shared
> (there are about 14, including the PFC and PFE).
>
> I set up three applications each with their own library list that looks
> something like this:
>
> prod1.pbl, common1.pbl, common2.pbl...pfe*.pbl, pfc*.pbl
> prod2.pbl, common1.pbl, common2.pbl...pfe*.pbl, pfc*.pbl
> prod3.pbl, common1.pbl, common2.pbl...pfe*.pbl, pfc*.pbl
>
> If I make a change to any of the objects in a common library (or the PFC),
> the intent is to have it affect all applications.
>
> I know that recompiling one will require the others to be recomplied
> because the pbl is modified when you compile, but I don't care. No user
> will have more than 1 of these applications on their machine ever. When I
> deploy an update to one, I will deploy an update to all three.
> Multi-developer issues are not a concern.
>
> Does anyone see any potential problems with this? For both production
> release or any problems I might find when I develop (e.g. disappearing
> scripts when a pbl is modified by two different applications)....

> Thanks,
