So how about defining cperror as a method of an âerror_countingâ class?
Then you instantiate two error_counting objects, one for the old and the
one for the new file, and pass it down to the test functions, or create
a single object and introduce a function that returns the accumulated
count before resetting it.
These are probably more in line with the intent of the rule to avoid
âglobalâ, but the former is more in line with the idea of avoiding
global state.
