hi
i pick up on the subject of OOP and whether there should be at least one
global to keep track of the main manager object that births the rest.
my approach uses ancestors to get rid of all the globals, but i'm not sure
if i'm doing the right thing. for me it works so far, and lets me move the
objects between movies without worrying about global variable's names.
whenever i birth an object i declare the parent as an ancestor of the child.
then, every time i want to access a handler on a higher object, i access it
with me.whateverhandler() without having to worry if it is the immediately
closer parent or another one further away in the hierarchy.
is this a proper way of doing OOP?
thanks
victor
