What is hard code & soft code?..

Answer / devnaga

Hard code is the code directly used in the program. Soft
code gets the information dynamically from outside. For
example, to get the database connectivity, if we passed the
url, username & password for thin drivers in the
programming itself is hard coding. At the same time, if we
create a jndi for the above in config & get it in the
program using jndi name is softcode. It is becoz to change
the db connectivity settings we need not modify the program.
