AFAIK - there is no easy or robust way to initialise local variables? That
is you can't do something like:
local thisWorks = "some long complicated result"
local thisDoesnt = getComplicatedResult()
function getComplicatedResult
return "some long complicated result"
end getComplicatedResult
There's a request for this in the RQCC:
<http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=1241>
You could initialize things on a preopencard - but this would not allow for
it's use when called from another stack - as in defining a custom property
put the complicated_Result" of btn 1 of stack "Test"
I think there is no way to do this with locals - so you have to functions or
properties and calculate them each time for a handler? Using a global would
be over-cluttering things.
Why are globals so unloved?
Most programming languages support them so they can be accessed
globally. If you need global access, why not use a global?
