Forget the last one! - I just thought it through , sorry! Your idea of having the Record know its parent is better, and you see this quite a lot in the BCL. -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of development on the .NET platform using any managed language [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Adrian Martin Sent: 20-November-2007 13:29 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Child objects inheriting property values class Column : Record { public Column() { this.Delimeter = base.Delimeter; } } -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of development on the .NET platform using any managed language [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brady Kelly Sent: 20-November-2007 10:10 To: [email protected] Subject: Child objects inheriting property values I have a hierarchy of objects that share some attributes, e.g. both my parent Record and Column objects have a columnDelimiter property. I want this property on the Column object to default to the same property on the Record object, until specified on the Column object. What is the best way to go about this? I could give each Column a reference to the Record it belongs to, but this seems not quite right to me. My other option is to have the Record act as a ColumnFactory, setting the columnDelimiter value on each Column it creates, until a set accessor on Column optionally overrides that default value. =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor(r) http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com Johnston Press plc Registered in Scotland no.
