B4J Question MenuBar and Class Module (Standard Class)

[Gianni M]

usually we have a MenuBar (AS myMenu) and a code like

'dim pMenu as Pane
Sub myMenu_Action
    Dim mi As MenuItem = Sender
    Dim tag As String
    tag = mi.Tag
    Select tag
        Case "exit"
            ExitApplication
        Case "module1"
                Dim md1 As jModule1
                md1.Initialize (with or without param)
                CallSubDelayed3(md1, "Show", pMenu, "Info1")
            End If
        Case "module2"
                Dim md2 As jModule2
                md2.Initialize (with or without param)
                CallSubDelayed3(md2, "Show", pMenu, "jInfo2")
            End If
        Case "module...n"
        'same of module1, module2, module3, and .......
    End Select
End Sub

question:
can use a unique

 Dim mdJ as ?????

and after continue with

mdj.Inizialize (.......)
CallSubDelayes3 (mdJ , "Show", pMenu, abc)

or how to possible optimze ?

I guess that the jModules show a new form. Do you really want to create a new one each time? Why do you have so many modules? Maybe you need to have a single one that can be configured. This will make things simpler.

 

[Gianni M]

yes, i have many modules (examples customers, sales agents, sales orders, report, staticts, .....) each his layout and code

Maybe you need to have a single one that can be configured. This will make things simpler.

I don't understand; which approach to use ?

 

[Erel]

If each module is different then my suggestion is not relevant.

Do you really want to create a new module each time that the menu item is pressed? If so then your code is designed correctly.
