Quick question about how objects work. I'm using a global XML parser
object to go through data and call handlers
where appropriate. These handlers then access the global object.
However, issues arise in the fact that I am constantly receiving this
xml data. If I am not done in handlerX with xmlDataY when a new
document comes in, the data in the object will be overwritten in the
middle of my interaction with it.
To solve this, I thought maybe I could do something like the following,
eliminating the global xml object. Basically, I want to know if this
code is legal, as I seem to be getting some random errors.
on XMLrecieve
myXMLdata = new(xtra "xmlparser")
--do xml parsing and examination
if (myXMLdata.child[1].name = "foobar") then
--pass the object as a param here
foobarxmlhandler(myXMLdata)
end if
end XMLreceive
on foobarxmlhandler(foobarXMLdata)
myXMLdata = new(xtra "xmlparser")
myXMLdata = foobarXMLdata
do stuff
end foobarxmlhandler
