I don't know the correct answer.
I do know that I have never done it and that I know of no example if
its being done and that I know of no instructions on how to do it.
It is my opinion that you often decide on solutions by yourself and
then seek in CDMA the "how to" of the solution without discussion of
the problem and which solution might be appropriate.
Interesting -- my posting pattern has drawn your attention!
I don't know whether to be concerned or pleased.
You are correct that I often decide on the solution and then seek
advice on how to implement it. If I fail to post complete context, it
is due to time restrictions and, to some degree, non-disclosure
agreements and other legal obligations to which I am a party. My
personal inclination is to include MORE detail than needed to address
the problem. People often accuse me of telling them how to build a
clock, when the time of day was all they wanted to know.
It is also my opinion that this strategy sometimes leads you to accept and to note
your support for ideas, strategies and code which are suspect, if not down-right nonsense.
I assure you, I have never IMPLEMENTED nonsense coding advice. If I
have appeared to approve of or recommend nonsense, then thanks for
your insight and effort. Would you be so kind as to describe an
example from this group where I have demonstrated such behavior?
If you succeed, I will GLADLY admit it and thank you publicly for
identifying my error.
In any case, I'm not a big fan of re-inventing the wheel. If I can
get a quick answer here from kind folks who do me the honor of
sharing, why should I (or anyone) waste time doing original research
on issues that thousands of others have already competently done?
Is that not one of the intended results of this group?
I believe this group is a significant force for good in support of the
human economic engine -- and YOUR contributions are much appreciated.
