Hi,
we've been yakking about some "include" feature on the OpenTalk list
recently. We'd need it so one can keep a stack's functions around as a nice
library.
What do you all think about a "libraryStacks" (or "libraryObjects"?)
property for all objects which specifies a list of stacks that are to be
automatically inserted into the message-passing hierarchy of any handler in
the object's script when it's executed?
This would remove the need for "start using" or "insert" and the
respective "stop using" or "remove" calls in every handler of a script.
When a handler is about to be executed, the object's libraryStacks are
start-used, then the handler is executed and they are stop-used again so
that they aren't accidentally called by another object's handlers.
Penny for your thoughts? (figuratively spoken, of course).
Cheers,
-- M. Uli Kusterer
