[AGENT++] A few questions on shared tables

[Frank Fock]

Hi Mike,

You can create a single subclass of the generated AgentXSharedTable
that serves for all sub-agents. Since the row_added method provides
the index OID of the registered row, you can use that information
to fetch the values from an internal cache that has been filled
from the previously by calling a method of your subclass.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Frank
