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.

Answer / ohm nathan
The value of the variable assigned in the code itself is
called Hard Coded.
Instead of this assigning the value at runtime/dynamically
is called Soft Coded.

Answer / razorx
To "hardcode" is to write an absolute value (not a variable or another dynamic data) directly in an application's source code. It's sometimes necessary for e.g. to provide fixed installation path or to detect the piracy or counterfeiting etc.
