Strict Compilation Mode

[Ender Nafi Elekcioglu]

I have many strict rules about naming conventions and style of code, organizations of cards, usage of groups, etc.
But my co-workers don’t care those scripting rules much
and their lack of attention -especially typos- make debugging process a headache.

Besides, I wanted our projects to be future-proof.
One after another their scopes get wider, line count of codes increase constantly.

So far, I’m pretty happy with Strict Compilation Mode on.



Best,

This has been hashed out before, but I think that if you are not using strict compilation mode from the git go, it would probably be better if you didn’t switch. Unless you are writing a fairly complex application, there really is not any reason (that I can see) for using strict compilation mode. It’s not that difficult to keep track of your variables if you develop a standard naming convention.
