I probably wasn't clear enough...
Let's say I have screens A, B and C and I want them to implement behavior
alpha.
I also have screens D, E and F and I want them to implement behavior beta.
Now, I could create two abstract java screen classes called alpha and beta.
Then I create java classes A - F and I let them extend alpha and beta. This
will work, however I will have 6 classes (A-F) that do not have a body. They
will all look like this:
public class A extends Alpha {
}
public abstract class Alpha extends VelocityScreen {
//Here there will actually be code
}
My question is:
Is this the only way to execute the code in Alpha when a request for A.vm is
made?
The only issue here is that I might end up with 20 or something classes that
look like the A class, and I wonder if that is really necessary.

Hi Ludwig,
extend from your Default Screen and overwrite the methods you would like to
change...
Did I get you wrong?
Kind regards
