Hi !

Suppose I have three or four screens in my midlet that use the same type of command, say OkCommand.

Do you think it is a good idea to create a single okCommand object and use it with different screens. Or is it better to create separate okCommand object for each screen.

For me i use the same command button if it is applicable to my screen. Then i try to validate which screen currently that command was attached, in that way i can process the command action depending on the current screen.

On the other hand, you can consrve much resources by not creating too much object in the heap.

I would create a single OK command and delegate the event handler to a single utility method in the MIDlet class. Or, alternatively, use a centralized CommandListener for all screens in the app.
