This section describes best practices that aid in developing applications and libraries that use the OPC Data Client library.

All information described in this section is merely a set of guidelines to aid development. These guidelines do not constitute an absolute truth. They are patterns that we found helpful; not rules that should be followed blindly. There are situations where certain guidelines do not apply. It is up to each individual developer to decide if a certain guideline makes sense in each specific situation.

The guidelines in this section are listed in no particular order.
