Fixes #41
Turned out to be a devilishly simple fix. Simply use the existing application instance if it exists. AFAIK this is non-breaking, since there can only be one
Application
instance per AppDomain, so existing users have not been able to instantiate their ownApplication
instance until now, ensuring that this is an opt-in feature.With this simple change, users that need application-wide resources or otherwise need to specify an application instance can simply instantiate it before calling the
Program
functions. For example:Something like this should probably be added to the documentation and/or a sample.
