That is useful to know -- it is not a complete answer to the larger
question: if you create a new model() and save it in the
ClassRepository, use it in one context, then use it in another (or
with nested methods use it back and forth between two different
contexts) are there any predictable/unwanted side efffects? I do like
limiting object instantiation, but was wondering if I could be going
too far.
Asked another way, which types of objects was the ClassRepository
designed to make global?
