Greetings,
I have several Accounts and the accounts have Transactions.
My plan was to instantiate a Transaction and to populate it from a file, and then have each of the Transactions
attach themselves to an Account.
This is a sort of bottom up design.
The problem is that I have a bunch of Accounts and Transactions running around the system and no tools for working with them.
I can do Accounts allInstances do: []. But then I also get old instances (from debugging).
Is this a good way of doing things? Do I need to have some Collection somewhere, so I can go and find each item
when I need it? Like a common control mechanism? And if so, what would it look like?
Do you think I should create a list of accounts and then each Account will have a list of Transactions? The old top down approach?
Sincerely,
Joe.
