Enhanced Code Reusability
SmartObjects are defined in external procedures, thus creating a potential for code reuse far greater than that afforded by basic objects alone. There is no limit to the number of different application files that can instantiate the same SmartObject master. Moreover, you can assign different run-time properties to each instance while still creating each from a single master.
The potential for code reuse that SmartObjects create makes it much easier to maintain complex, enterprise-wide applications, because a change you make in a SmartObject master is reflected in every instance of the SmartObject in every application that uses it.
