This sounds like a context thing.

Subject: [REBOL] Elegant way to reference a function?


>
> Hi all,
>
> What is the elegant way to reference a function?
>
> Let me explain a little bit my context :
>
> I am working on a program that selects items using criterion (may be the
plural criteria is required here, but I'm french you know). Theses items are
photos, for example, or texts such as FAQ.
>
> For photos, the person who is on the photo is a criterion. To select
photos, it is just a matter of a click on a checkbox. With this, it is easy
to see photos with marc and chouchou (marc is my son, chouchou is my cat).
It is possible to make exclusion, for a FAQ program, it will be possible to
search for FAQ with 'bind and 'use but not with 'view.
>
> Back to the question : I don't want the main program to know about photos,
or FAQ or anything else. However it's not the same to show a photo or to
display a FAQ. So I need a generic function, used during the test, that will
be replaced with minimum effort (I'm actually from the south of france ;-)
with the required function.
>
> To be more practical, if I have a button like this on a window.
>
>
>  button "show me" [display]
>
> I want the function display to be :
> - a simple test function when debuging or
> - a function that shows a photo or
> - a function that displays a FAQ text
>
>
> I have thought of aliases, but there are a bit problematic to me (because
I don't know to get rid of them).
>
> I think may be it is as simple as :
>
> display: :my-show-photo-function
>
>
> Any idea, or suggestions ?
