I'm working on an application that has many class libraries (VCXs) in the project. In the startup code, there is a SET CLASSLIB TO...ADDITIVE command for each and every VCX. The same goes for procedures; SET PROCEDURE TO ... ADDITIVE. Is there any drawback to doing it this way? I was wondering if there is any advantages of loading them on a "as needed" basis. Something along the lines of

IF !"SOMECLASSLIB"$SET("Classlib")
SET LIBRARY TO SOMECLASSLIB ADDITIVE
ENDIF

Then when its not needed, just RELEASE CLASSLIB SOMECLASSLIB. Would this be a more efficient use of RAM and/or does it affect the speed in any way?

TIA,
Mike
