Greetings Lingo-Listers.
How do you create a linear list of instances
of objects created from one parent script without
making that list global? other than the actorList.
i tried using...
--< parent script >-----------------------
property pInstanceList
on new me, wInstance
-- pInstanceList = [] -- this is where i get in trouble.
append(pInstanceList, wInstance)
return me
end
on mDisplayInstanceList me
put pInstanceList
end
--< behavior >-----------------------
property pObj
on beginSprite me
pObj = new(script "_Parent_", me)
-- add(the actorList, me) -- i don't want to use this.
end
on mouseUp me
pObj.mDisplayInstanceList(me)
end
--< /behavior >-----------------------
If i add the line pInstanceList=[] then
the list gets initialized everytime
an object is created. So, where is
the perfect place to initialize
the list?
Thanks a lot in advance.
