RE: [achievo] [DEV] Display related value
I will contribute, but need a few minutes to finish a third portion.
In the process, I've sort of developed my own naming conventions.
For example, I decided that to be sure I don't conflict with mainstream
development, my tables/fields/nodes/modules have a somewhat more "formal"
appearance, although it makes them much harder to work with. Thus,
my tables, fields, class/node/modules all use an Upper/Lower case in their
naming and the underscore as a "word separator" when I feel like having
words or acronyms in my names.
So for starters, all of my stuff goes in $home/modules_addons.
As you've seen in the e-mail postings, my table/field names are like:
Technology_Classes
Technology_Class_ID
Technology_Class_Desc
Technology_SubClasses
Technology_SubClass_ID
Technology_ParentClass_ID
Technology_SubClass_Desc
etc, etc.
I'm at a point where I can revise to keep things more in-line with your
fundamental concepts, but I thought at least anyone who uses the add-on
modules concept ought to have some way of distinguishing the origin and who
(if anyone other than themselves) would be responsible for change
management.
Comments from one/all most welcome.
Eventually I have an ambition to integrate my add-ons with mainstream. But
that's "several days from now!"
Thanks for all your help so far, Ivo. I'm very pleased with the way stuff
works once I understand a little bit about what there is lurking in the way
of "tools/functions", etc.
