JS: Using functions in @sample

[lossius]

I'm developing a set of plugins with quite a bit of shared code. In order to make the code more DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) I have implemented a lot of this stuff as functions located in a separate lib file, and that works well.

I now need to implement some DSP processing in the @sample part of the code that also is to be used by several plugins. It is tempting to do this as a function in the lib file as well, and then call the function from within the @sample block. However I am concerned about whether this might cause additional processing overhead as compared to having the code directly in the @sample block itself.

If this was a C++ project I would use inline and get the best of both worlds, but are there any advices regarding this in JS?

Thanks!

I think I read somewhere that functions are compiled "in-line" when Ctrl+s is pressed.

I'll try a Search.

There can be a small amount of overhead, but it really depends. Try it and test
