There are two ways to go with this:
1) keep adding "keys" to the BIG global sConfigA
OR
2) we could keep the custom properties of Stack Engine (which is always open)
Does anyone have experience and has come to "best practices" for this
architecture? And why?
One way I deal with this situation is with getter and setter functions:
It's a step away from global variables and you have more control and
flexibility.
# in the main "engine" stack (move sConfigA here)
local sConfigA
function configArray pKey
if pKey is empty then
return sConfigA # return the whole array if needed
else
return sConfigA[pKey] # return just the requested value
end if
end configArray
command setConfigTo pKey, pValue
put pValue into sConfigA[pKey]
end setConfigTo
# in the "modular" stacks you can then
setConfigTo tKey, tValue
put configArray() into tRetrievalArray
put configArray(tKey) into tValue
