Hello Everyone,

Hope you are doing well.

This discussion is regarding to write a plugin code in one .cs file or multiple .cs file.

We have seen that many developers are using only one .cs file to manage the code of all the messages of the entity. At the other hand some of the developers are creating more than one .cs file based on the Message. Could anyone confirm what should be the best practice to manage the Plugins?

Hello,

In my opinion - one plugin - one class, one cs file.

Where there could be a common base - I use base classes and put all the shared elements in it and inherit plugin classes from it.

One file compare with multiple files:

Advantages:

1. Less plugin can cause less conflict in plugin registration.

Disadvantages:

1. Hight coupling.

2. Less flexable

3. Need consider deepth, order, trigger point, async/sync, etc.

So i vote for multiple files.

BTW, you can find the OOTB plugin in plugin registration tool and see how they do it.
