[Webware-discuss] Application-wide objects

[Albert B. <al...@li...>]

Hi!

It would sometimes be useful to have objects that exist only
once per application. I'd e.g. like to have a factory object
that returns objects with unique id numbers. Of course, this
could be implemented using a database, but for prototyping
purposes that's an overkill.

I've seen that Application allows to add "cans". Can they be
used to implement factory objects? Could someone explain the
concept - maybe with an example?

	Thanx in advance,
