RE: Function Opinion

["Bob cozzi" <cozzi@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have to disagree that maintainability is a contributing factor to the
decision that one procedure per service program be a shop standard.

The main advantage for having one function per service program is
maintainability.  It can get a bit messy if 2 developers try to modify
different functions in the same service program.

Subject: Function Opinion


I have a client that insists on creating service programs with only one
function per service program.  I have always been of the opinion that all
"like" functions should be contained in a service program together.  

That being said, are there any benefits or possible issues with having only
one function per service program?

Thank you,
