MEMVAR

Declares private and public variables and arrays.

Syntax

      MEMVAR <xVar>

Arguments

<xVar> Memory variable Name

Description

This command tells the compiler to resolve any reference to a memory variable designated within this list s if it possessed an explicit memory variable alias with either the M-> or MEMVAR-> prefix.Only those memory variables that do not contain any such explicit are affected by this command. Those memory variabls within macro expansions are not affected by this command.

The MEMVAR declaration must apear before any executable commands;it is similat to the LOCAL, STATIC, FIELD, PARAMETERS, FUNCTION, and PROCEDURE commands statements.

Examples

      MEMVAR y AS NUMERIC
      PROCEDURE Main()
         LOCAL n, lVar

         n := iif( lVar, "A", 3 )
         n := 2
         n := "a"
         n := seconds() + 2
         n := int( seconds() + 2 )
         y := n
         ? y
         RETURN
