Dear All,
I am working in organization as Sr. Design Engineer. Our major problem is to have standard modules to be shared between all software engineers. I dont want all to write their own code, Can there be any method by which code can be shared by all without allowing others to modify the proven part, what i mean is only application layer should be modifiable to others
- basic core should remain unchanged.
Regards, Priti
Supply compiled modules that can be linked into their programs?

Yes, fiat. Provide them with the code that is to be shared, and tell them not to change it.
Assuming you are using C, write re-entrant functions in pure standard C code. For other languages, use the ISO standard for that language. Avoid proprietary languages, such as C#.
Others have suggested providing compiled libraries and house rules.
I recommend guidelines for designing and documenting modules so that they don't carry unneeded features or constraints to allow easy reuse. Also, publish each module with a test driver to verify operation.
