Do you know where your variables are?

( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Looks like passing it to the objects as an argument is the preffered solution. My only issue with that is that I have a relatively large object hierarchy, with something similar to the following objects:

A instantiates B and C B instantiates D D instantiates E [...]
So now if E needs access to the config module I'll have to pass it all the way down.

Yes, passing is slightly more typing, but if you don't, then you're accessing a global variable -- which is worse? The following might shed a little light

Why Singletons are Evil - Being Scott Densmore - Site Home - MSDN Blogs , Use your singletons wisely ; Know when to use singletons, and when to leave them behind

So a global app configuration is common use of a singleton ... I've used it, I've seen it used ... I don't really have an informed opinion :)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
