Justin,

Thanks for the information, I will have to look into just what subclassing the Application means/is and also SharedPreferences.

That said, why avoid them like the plague? If you don't use global variables then just how do you get some kind of static value (which is really what I'm after) available to all aspects of your app code?

TreKing, will look into the public static values as this might be more of what I need.

If you can't then you can either subclass Application and make them available there or you can use SharedPreferences...

    All,

What is the best way of going about setting up global variables? There will be like 5-6 global variables that I would like to set
    when my app is launched that are then available for any code
    anywhere in my app.
    I did something similar to this under Mojo on WebOS.  I just set
    some global variables during the stage-assistant.js script that
    could then be used by any script.

    TIA.
