When Is GDS Not Appropriate

While using the GDS has many advantages, there are instances when it is not appropriate to use the GDS. The GDS is not appropriate:

• When more control is required than is available using the pre-compiled resource type such as when you need to add extension properties or change the defaults.

• When the source code needs to be modified to add special functions.

• When you want to use multiple process trees.

• When you want to use non-network-aware applications.
