A technique that may eventually be used by our company is that the program
libraries may be combined into single program libraries in order to cut down
the number needed for production.  Of course this would only be for 1
product, whereas each product thinks that they have 25 libraries to use.   

Another problem that we have come across is the "hard-coding" of libraries
within products.  This makes is virtually impossible to create a test
environment on the same box using different library names.  I know that
partitioning and using another box for development would solve this, however
I don't think that libraries need to be hardcoded within programs.

Subject: Any plans to increase the number of libraries in the User
Library List ?

 

As a software house we are constantly running into problems with the number
of third party libraries in our application's library lists.   

I appreciate that the more unqualified libraries are searched the higher the
overhead, and that we could use a common command library and change the
commands product library, and we could change the system library list, and
we could use the current library . . . . 

But this does not answer the question "How long will we be limited to 25
user libraries" ?  

or what other techniques are being deployed to overcome this restriction ?

Any ideas

Oliver Cherryman.
