[wdvltalk] ASP Dynamic classes

[Clancy Jones]

Hi all
Working in classic ASP: I have a parent class "clsCountry" and I want to 
have a sub-class "clsRegions" which will be a property of clsCountry.  
Probably then a further sub-class "clsRegionDetails" which would be a 
property of clsRegions.

In some instances a country will only have one "region" and in other 
instances there may be up to 10.  What's the most logical way to organise 
this?

I would imagine it working like this:
response.write clsCountry.regions.region1.regionDetails.name
response.write clsCountry.regions.region1.regionDetails.description
if clsCountry.regions.region2.regionDetails.name<>"" then
 response.write clsCountry.regions.region2.regionDetails.name
 response.write clsCountry.regions.region2.regionDetails.description
end if
if clsCountry.regions.region3.regionDetails.name<>"" then
 response.write clsCountry.regions.region3.regionDetails.name
 response.write clsCountry.regions.region3.regionDetails.description
end if
etc, etc...
OR.. Should clsRegions have a property that holds the number of Regions for 
the current country?
eg.
for i = 1 to clsCountry.Regions.totalRegions
 lvstrRegion = clsCountry.regions.region&i
 response.write eval(lvstrRegion.regionDetails.name)
 response.write eval(lvstrRegion.regionDetails.description)
next

I'd be interested to hear how others would approach this.  When creating 
clsRegions, would you hard code in a number of region properties that is 
expected to be greater than requirements?  Or is there a smarter way to do 
it dynamically?

Thoughts much appreciated,
Clancy
