I worked for a company where they maintain an interface for a creditcard-billing platform (one of the eight biggest platforms in the world). They only have 1 library file for each part of the application and they don't do classes at all. It does millions of transactions per day for clients worldwide and is real fast. So, it can be done. Except that only two persons know where to find the code and how to maintain it and it is not documented. I learned a lot at that company.

including how to build job-security into your code by the sounds of it ;-)

Nah.... these two people are just the owners of this company with only two other people for support (ridiculous I know), so that's not such a big deal. They where hardcore C programmers, so I understand why they don't do OOP. -- Aschwin Wesselius <social> What you would like to be done to you, do that to the other.... </social>
