Const Class

I call it as const class since the class is used mainly for constants. I learned this this strategy when I used MVP for desktop applications. Concept is very simple, use this class to manage all the constants used in your application so that all the related constants are organized in a better structure.

For example, all the table name field names for a SQL table are defined in a class. Instead of hard-coded strings in your application, you can use this class to manage the table and fields names. I also added some query in the class to get some query SQLs. This makes the maintenance of my application much easier. Whenever I want to change the table or field or query strings, I know where to find them to make changes. No more need to search for the hard-code strings in my application.
