 |

Hi Dave,
Are there a limit of the number of parameters for each function into a plugin?
The equate MaxActionParams setted to 10 is the limit ?
Thanks in advance,
David de Argentina |

Yes, the limit is 10. However, you can combine multiple bits of information into a single compound parameter as we did with some NeoBookDBPro actions.

Dear David
IMHO and according w/ software engeneering principles to many parameters in a module made it hard to test.
When you have a module that make a single task (cohesion) it is easy to test, you can predict some errors or discover them faster.
With 10 parameters you have the risk of a module/plugin with many other joins/links to other functions and less cohesion. With a few parameters you can avoid the 'wave effect' of any mistake it means that anrror occur in a module and spread away along the system.
