Hi from Beautiful Brittany, Sorry to put the proverbial cat among the pigeons !
Wonderful ! I have never seen so many complex naming conventions that I am sure you don't follow. If you do, then it is for who ? If it is for you, this means that your organizational solutions prime upon your script development and production. What a waste of grey matter ! If you spend more time wondering what you are going to call your variables, than developing your scripts, then you DO have a problem ! In 5 minutes, you can write a button script to list out Variable and Field Names, to ensure that you don't invent duplicate names. Revolution scripting is not to be pondered upon. Just write it, as it flows out of your brain. Don't invent rules that you will not follow ! Naming conventions are personal. They are mostly designed to help YOU, maintain and modify YOUR scripts in the future, if you ever NEED to return to them ! Forget naming conventions, and spend a little time with comments. It beats naming conventions every day. If anybody will ever read it except you ! If you ever have to return to your scripts (and I doubt that you do this often), you either recognize your coding, and your coding knowledge, AND YOUR COMMENTS, and so you don't need to invent a complex naming convention, or else it is not your script, and HIS naming convention is of no help whatsoever. But by the saints, an intelligent comment is !!! I spent years (with Hypercard) inventing a simple and strict naming convention WHICH I MYSELF RENAGUE ON EVERY DAY ! So - what is the point ? My 2 cents (of a euro) ! - Francis -"Nothing should ever be done for the first time !" _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
