Registry class question.

Hi, I've build a registry class to store settings I need to use in several other classes. Currently I've set it up with a static array in the registry class and using two methods to access the settings and values storeSetting($key,$value) { $this->_settings[$key] = $value; } getSetting($key) { return $this->_settings[$key]; } The question is what the pros and cons are compared to setting a new property with the value, like: storeSetting($key,$value) { $this->$key = $value; } and then instead of calling getSetting, you just use $this->Registry->property -- Peter van der Does GPG key: E77E8E98 IRC: Ganseki on irc.freenode.net Twitter: @petervanderdoes WordPress Plugin Developer Blog: http://blog.avirtualhome.com Forums: http://forums.avirtualhome.com Twitter: @avhsoftware
