In practical terms, boilerplate code is the stuff you cut-n-paste all over the place. Often it'll be things like a module header, plus some standard/required declarations (every module must declare a logger, every module must declare variables for its name and revision, etc.) On my current project, we're writing message handlers and they all have the same structure (read a message, validate it, process it) and to eliminate dependencies among the handlers we didn't want to have them all inherit from a base class, so we came up with a boilerplate skeleton. It declared all the routine variables, the standard methods, exception handling framework — all a developer had to do was add the code specific to the message being handled. It would have been quick & easy to use, but then we found out we were getting our message definitions in a spreadsheet (which used a boilerplate format), so we wound up just writing a code generator to emit 90% of the code (including the unit tests).

样板文件是优秀程序员所避免的:重复。

在词源上，术语boilerplate: from http://www.takeourword.com/Issue009.html…

Interestingly, the term arose from the newspaper business. Columns and other pieces that were syndicated were sent out to subscribing newspapers in the form of a mat (i.e. a matrix). Once received, boiling lead was poured into this mat to create the plate used to print the piece, hence the name boilerplate. As the article printed on a boilerplate could not be altered, the term came to be used by attorneys to refer to the portions of a contract which did not change through repeated uses in different applications, and finally to language in general which did not change in any document that was used repeatedly for different occasions.

编程中的样板文件由什么组成?正如其他人可能已经指出的那样，它 只是一大块代码，一遍又一遍地复制，很少或 在这个过程中没有对它做任何改变。

样板文件是一种写作单元，可以不作任何更改地反复使用。通过扩展，这种思想有时应用于可重用编程，如“样板代码”

您可以将其称为“片段”，或者更准确地称为“片段的集合”。 我认为这个术语是由新闻界和印刷业创造出来的，在那里他们使用实际的“板块”，然后再次将它们用作大块。 在现代互联网上，这是一个正在进行的(恕我冒犯)趋势的一部分，使用花哨的术语来描述简单的东西，以便看起来更时尚和复杂。参见响应性=适应性/流动性。

“样板代码”是任何看似重复的代码，它们一次又一次地出现，以获得一些看起来应该简单得多的结果。

这是一个主观的定义。
