What runtime considerations are you talking about ABL vs. Java that are relevant for static classes in particular? Upgrading systems running "old" appservers. We use a hand full of utility classes that are static. We consider them extensions of the language. And I don’t have problems with that. It depends on how the OP designs his system, where the statics are used, and what kind of upgrade mechanism they follow. As I mentioned, the static lifecycle is to the appserver agent's life, not the user's session life, which makes upgrading them problematic. This was from a conversation I had with Mary a while ago where I related that losing a db connection resulted in a session reset for connect clients, and she wondered if that could be used to upgrade appserver agents. -- Tim Kuehn: Senior Consultant - TDK Consulting Services Ontario PUG President PUG Challenge Americas Executive, Program Committee Chair Skype: timothy.kuehn Ph: 519-576-8100 Cell: 519-781-0081
