Question How to match standard and specifics

[BobyIsProgress]

Hello all,
My title may seems not very clear.
Our Software is use on many plants and we want to standardize a lot of them. Our main issue is that in one plant one app of our software base can have a small difference, like working with a different DB.
What I was thinking of is:
Group Folder:
-MyGroupApp.w
Plant Folder:
-MySpecificAddonForMyGroupApp.i or other

I was thinhink that maybe with the use of preprocessor but I'm not sure about it.
Have you done something similar? What did you do ?

Best Regards,

BobyIsProgress

If you need to mange custom versions of the application for different sites, I would contact Rountable for a demo. It manages custom variants as well as managin the generation of separate deployments for each plant. I haven't looked at that part of the product in over 20 years, but it managed that kind of stuff even back then.

Thank you for your reply. But we will not be using round-table and we have a GIT repo for version management

Sounds like you want OO principles to be honest. You have your base code but in certain instances that can be overloaded/extended and all that loveliness.
