Android Question "Scope"

[LucaMs]

[I could try it by myself, but since at this moment there is a very expert person online and I'm too lazy... ]

I have (maybe) a global instance of a my class in the Starter service.
I need to use it in more than one other "modules", an Activity, for example.

What if I declare a Private variable in the Process_Globals of the Activity and I set it with a reference to the Starter object?


[I hope it is clear ]

' Starter
Public GlobalObj As MyClass

Sub Service_Create
    GlobalObj.Initialize

' Activity
Sub Process_Globals
    Private mObj As MyClass

Sub Activity_Create
    mObj = Starter.GlobalObj

I think this should work. (to avoid to write Starter.GlobalObj.SomeMethod each time )

Despite my laziness, I have tried and it works, as expected.

Useless question (but maybe useful topic)

I would put it here:

' Activity
Sub Globals
    Private mObj As MyClass

I prefer to use Globals only to declare views, but you're right, Klaus, I could declare that object in Globals.
