Go up one level in this thread


I remember Microsoft introducing the DLL because of the relative small disk
capacity of the first PC's, creating these shared library files to conserve disk
space.

I'd guess a programmer today would drop that DLL -concept (or other
OS-equivalent) to prevent incompatibility problems with other programs, and
create all resources necessary with as less as possible shared components. Or am
I mistaken?
