I am working on a 3-tier framework. UI (VFP form), BIZ, and DA will have bunch of properties of the same name. E.g. TABLE_NAME.
The value of a property will be set in the UI tier (property of VFP) form. E.g. property TABLE_NAME will have value "MYTABLE".
When UI form is instantiated I need to make sure that BIZ and DA properties of the same name get the same values.
The way I instantiate tiers is as following:
INIT method of UI form instantiates BIZ class (and references to a property of UI form).
INIT method of BIZ class instantiates DA class (and references to a property of a BIZ class).
I can set properties of BIZ class in the INIT of the UI form. But if I set properties of DA class in the INIT of BIZ class it will be too late.
I am looking for suggestions, please.
Thank you.
