What is the definition of modular scripting in the FileMaker world? -


How do you define modular scripting in filemaker context? I am not providing my definition yet on purpose. I want to know what you think. Thanks!

A modular script is that which does a useful function outside the script with no external dependencies. This is a 'one-shot' script, which takes no or no criteria, but there is a specific dependency for that file which is being used by it. On the contrary

The ideal modular script takes zero input, does some useful functions, and its results are not required. An example of this would be a script that current window on the screen is present for the center The size of the window varies. Because there are no I / O hookups and there is nothing to change outside the script, there is no cost to use this script.

More practical examples will require input parameters and output results. However, keep in mind that by increasing the number of parameters and complexity, the benefits of modularity have decreased. There is a tiping point in which the simplicity of 'one-shot', non-modular script, which requires some or no parameter, is a better option.
