Howdy, I have been looking back through the archives, and I am just starting to wrestle with the concept of Memento. It takes me about a month to catch up to the rest of the folks on the list =)
I have looked at several sites describing the concept, but I am not completely sure about it. I searched Sean's Blog, but strangely did not find any results? I think the concept basically is intended to expose an object's instance data without breaking any rules of encapsulation. My Example: If I had person.obj (apologize for the extension, just trying to make it more generic) which was composed of address.obj, and some instance vars such as firstname and last name etc I would then have personMemeto.obj that would take in a person.obj, and return the instance vars in some 'flattened' format to be use for persistence, etc.? If this is the case, I am running into the same issues I had with serialization, how do you return instance vars composed of other objects, or multiple objects? Any thought would be appreciated.
