If you just put all of your code into namespace Mylib, you're not safe because according to the name resolution rules, internal classes come after imported ones but before trying to find classes in the current namespace. > 1) library code is always explicitly "use"d > 2) name conflicts are impossible 1) is the crucial one because that puts your classes ahead of the internal ones in the resolution list. That is not only "library code" you explicitly use, but also all code from "your" own namespace. Having to explicitly enumerate all classes you use in your own namespace in every file may be tedious. So just to get that straight: Having a namespace statement and no "use" (because all you use is from your library) is a discouraged practise? Thanks! -mp.
