Hi
Something I've never been able to do in 8 years of Active4D is reproduce the
following behaviour documented in the "global" command description (Page 223):
>> If this command is used within a method and localVar does not exist in the
>> global scope, if it is defined within the method it will be in the global
>> scope <<
My understanding of this is that I should be able to define a global like this:
******************** LIBRARY METHOD **********************
method "foobar"
global($bar)
$bar:="HELLO"
end method
****************************************************************
. . . and then access it like this:
******************** REGULAR PAGE SCRIPT (FAILS) ********
foobar
write($bar)
************************************************************************
But I can't - Active4D always errors and I have to pull it into scope in the
calling script like this:
******************** REGULAR PAGE SCRIPT (WORKS) ********
foobar
global($bar)
write($bar)
************************************************************************
(i.e. I always need the global command BOTH in the defining method and in the
calling one as well).
Have I mis-understood the behaviour of the global command ?
Regards
Peter
