I guess where I am confused is this: the globals are not static - they are set once and then won't change during the lifetime of the user's session. So, after messing around with the ram DB idea, I realized I was back to the same problem. Let's say I create a dictionary to store all of the "globals" and other data I want available everywhere and I put that in a class. Every time I create an instance of the class to be able to access the data, a new instance of the dictionary is created that loads the same data in it. Seems kinda inefficient for me, especially if the data changes in one instance - how do you keep the others all in sync, or does that just happen automatically? I think there is something that I fundamentally not understanding and I don't know what it is. Am I making this too complicated? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
