Hi again, Jan,
Message de Jan Holst Jensen date 2009-09-05 22:10 :
This behavior is not exactly clear from the Help description - here from
the Help text about the "Dim Statement":
"Dim declares local variables within subroutines. Global variables are
declared with the PUBLIC or the PRIVATE statement."
So we have global variables that do not hold data globally but only
declare the variable globally. Strange notion... but of course useful
when used in nested calls like I do in the dialog example code I listed.
Would be nice if the help described the lifecycle of variable content as
well as the declaration scope.
Read the Basic Programming Guide, on the Wiki.
<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/BASIC_Guide/Scope_of_Variables>
The Basic Programming Guide is not up-to-date but is still valuable for learning
the basics of Basic and API.
Regards
Bernard
