I.2 Program Segmentation using Include Directives |
When your code base becomes very large, dividing it into smaller sections can
greatly aid in code maintenance. The %include directive is designed
for this purpose. In this example, we have a file named safe_common.spinc
that contains the following code:
full_name$ = 'Sally Sue'
tax_rate = 6.5
routine do_it
print 'Doing the routine called '; _routine
end routine
Here is the example of using the include file.
%include '@..\safe\safe_common'
print 'The full name is: '; full_name$
do_it
Large business applications can easily contain hundreds of thousands of lines of code.
These applications are greatly simplified by using many include directives.
Typically, each include file contains all the
variables and routines needed to perform a specific subtask.
