Subject: Design Question

I am having a small dillema. In a program I and a friend are writing I am
proposing to have a Singleton Error/Status object that is updated with
error/status information. For example (this code is nont tested and it is
just a conceptual look):


class StatusSingleton
	def setStatus( returnCode , message , obj=nil )
		@returnCode = returnCode
		@message = message
		@obj = obj
	end

	def getLastReturnCode
		return @returnCode
	end

	def getLastMessage
		return @message
	end
end

class MyObj
	def setTrue
		#A Big Error Occurs
		StatusSingleton.setStatus( "0x0080" , "Could not set true" );
	end
end

m = MyObj.new();
if( !m.setTrue() ) then
	MyTkTextFieldWidget.setText( StatusSingleton.getLastMessage() )
end



Is my StatusSinglton overkill? I am trying to consolidate error information
into one class. What do you think?

Thanks,

Zach
