We are working on a small Eiffel project, but we don't have
a local Eiffel expert overhere...

We want to define some classes, and create only one object of
each class. The object names must be global, so that they can
be used in all the class definitions and all refer to the same
(only one) object. Each object must be able to call routines
of any other object.
I realize that this conflicts with the pure object oriented
principle, but it seems to be necessary in our project.

Can anyone help us out? Are such global object possible in
Eiffel?
