In over a decade of professional development I have never (to my knowledge or my memory) had a problem caused by using globals...
Diligence and discipline have served me well I guess
Anyways, the more I read up on design patterns and familiarize myself with them I often find myself saying "ahhh..." I do that...or i've done that...and makes me feel good knowing now I have formalized my understanding of the subject...
And can at least follow along when I read posts by Arborint
Anyways...one pattern that I just have a helluva time accepting as reasonable is the Registry...
To make matters worse...when I search for Registry...all I get is PHP and Java articles...personally...I would prefer if it was done in C++...just cuz...
When I search other design patterns I have no problems...but registry I have failed to find anything outside of phpPatterns and a few Java articles...
Although I do get alot of articles on Windows registry
Anyways...before I ultimately conclude I don't need registry (or I find a bug caused by globals, etc) or it doesn't make sense...I'd like to read a quality article on the subject first...
Anyone know of any???
Cheers
