Does somebody have experience with (lists of) procedural variables?


Any ideas?

While I in fact don't understand the meaning of your post:

Regarding OOP, would it not be better to do lists of objects with class procedures instead of lists of procedural variables. So these classes would be children of a parent class and you can do a clean list (TList derivate, array or whatever) of same.

I also have problems to understand your answer :-(

The directive list contains records with the name and other attributes of every directive, and with a reference to the directive handler procedure.

These handler procedures need further information, that currently resides in global variables. In an OO approach these variables become class members, so that an additional reference to a concrete object is required in the directive handlers.

In so far "class procedure" doesn't help, if you meant that, because Self in a class procedure is the class type, not a class instance.

It's also useless to create new classes, because the handlers need access to the elements in a concrete parser/scanner class (instance).
