pass configuration data to classes

[crosbystillsnas]

Hi.

What do you think is the best way to make a configuration file accessible in all following classes?

would you include the file in each class separately or is it better/cleaner/safer to pass a config-object to each class when calling it, i.e. go with a config-class...?

sorry if this has already been discussed. didnt find a thread that explains it.

I use a Singleton object to hold system configuration - meaning all the respective bits of code can get access to the configuration without having to worry about scoping or creating numerous instances of the same data.
