Truly Global

Hello!

I was just wondering something that's kinda bugging me....

You see, i want certain variables to be able to be accessed from numerous .cpp and .h files... (all in the usual Class XXX.cpp, XXX.h pairings)

At the momemt, the easiest and cleanest thing so far i've found is to make a GLOBAL class, fill it with all the variables that i want, and then have up the top of the files:

Code:

---

#include "glob.h"
extern GLOB prjGlobals;

---

or something similar...is there an eaier way?

Probably not.

You may want to re-think your design though. I doubt you absolutely need those global variables.

There's a few way of providing global information to the app. The most common and probably cleanest is to have an application class, implemented as a singleton, available from everywhere through a static accessor method, that provides the global data.
