Re: [sc-users] ProxySpace and currentEnvironment

Hi Julian

Thanks for the reply.

but since this is a common request, I've written a new class: GenericSpace. I don't know whether it should be added to JITLib (I prefer to keep it as small as possible) but it seems to be quite useful.

This is great. However, I don't think it solves my problem.

I need to store the environment values somewhere that if a _user_ of the

environment (the ixiQuarks) suddenly runs ProxySpace it doesn't erase 

all the data from the currentEnvironment.

I cannot tell the user to use GenericSpace rather than ProxySpace.

So I guess I'll stop using environmental variables and make a specific

class for the storage of environmental (ixiQuarks) data.

Thanks

PS. I love the names of the Maybe and Perhaps classes. No helpfiles : (

What do they do? We need more of Maybes and Perhapses and Possiblys

and Rarely and AlmostDefinitively in programming languages.
