Oh well, hell then. Use comments in your function definitions to
explicitly state what you mean.
Something like:
HRESULT CSwBusiness::VerifyBusinessAddress
//
// Check Address
// BR: If !IsOnlineBusiness, then make address fields required
// BR: If Address changed, calc new LatLong, InterleavedLatLon
//
(
IsboContext * piSboContext,
// [in] Needed to get datasource property
_Recordset * piRecordset,
// [in/out] relevant recordset
ULONG *pulNewInterleavedLatLong,
// [out] returns current InterleavedLatLong (for subq. bus.
rules).
BOOL* pfDirty
// [out] set TRUE if fields modified
)
Would have thought this was obvious,
