Working my way up from scratch isn't an option, sorry try again. *chuckles* I do agree yes, it is a pain in the butt. But you don't learn from something being easy. And yes I would like to get to the full OOness to the mud, would love to see it all 100% OO. So I'm trying to get their slowly by teaching myself along the way, (and belive me i wish the place wasn't rom oy.) But it is :) I didn't think to download another code base and look at how they pulled something off.
The reason I'm so stiff about changing my code base is, too much time has already been spend into this source before me, during me, and then when we had Ammaross merge all of his source with us. It's entirly too much work to just drop it cold turkey and work on a new one. Plus I like the learning asspect from having to remove something to change it. But I guess sounds like the best idea would be to look and see how another c++ code base did it. I just trying to avoid having to give anymore people credit for 'dirived work' :) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chad Simmons" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Dale Kingston" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, September 28, 2003 8:36 PM Subject: Re: Loading objects, as objects... > > --- Dale Kingston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I know odd title, but I've been working on something lately and I'm a little > > confused at how to go about this, (bare with me, most of my c++ knowledge is > > self taught.) > > > > I'm trying to make my objects, objects.
