>>Hello,

>>We are using Visual FoxPro 5.0 and we have build a framework. Of course we want to make other applications from the framework. Now we would like to know if it is better to copy all the framework-classes to the new application or that we will use the classes from the framework directory. In the last case it will be possible that if we change a method in de framework-class, all applications will be changed. We would would like your opinion please.

>We use a basic framework class library and copy the framework to a new directory for each new app. Then you can subclass your application specific classes from the framework library. Changes you make to the framework class library should not be application specific, rather only to the basic framework, this way your frame work changes can be cascaded to any of your other apps if you recompile them. Changes to the frame work classes can be harmful if it is not done with diligence, however.
