abstract:Hard coding (also, hard-coding or hardcoding) refers to the software development practice of embedding what may, perhaps only in retrospect, be regarded as input or configuration data directly into the source code of a program or other executable object, or fixed formatting of the data, instead of obtaining that data from external sources or generating data or formatting in the program itself with the given input.
Why not write the program in a way where you figure out dynamically when the program is run how much memory you need rather than hard coding in two with or within that constant.
To gradually bring this new product experience to life, SAP is standardizing development on several core platforms, which, breaking the hard-coding paradigm, will be loosely coupled and naturally distributed.
