Doesn't the "m" in "m_someVariable" stand for "member of", not "global variable"? Shouldn't global variables appear as "g_someVariable"?


 * More or less, the text was in error and your supposition is correct(that is explained on the C++ Programming book on the section about style conventions, see Hungarian Notation), but it is also a global variable as described... --Panic (talk) 06:16, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Um, What?
Creating a local pointer in all your classes to "theApp" (and thus, all your objects) is NOT going to be more efficient that just accessing the global object directly.
