GENERATE_UNDEFINED_SCRIPT_VARS

Systemwide variable that allows you to use the script function GENERATE_SCRIPT_VARS to generate script variables from a VARA object when set to Y.

Allowed values: Y and N
Default value: N

Set the value to Y only if you want to use the script function GENERATE_SCRIPT_VARS.

Example

GENERATE_UNDEFINED_SCRIPT_VARS = Y

:SET &ret# = GENERATE_SCRIPT_VARS("VARA.STORE")
:SET &y# = &x#

Important! The syntax of script functions is checked when the object is saved or the script is executed. This syntax check is not performed when GENERATE_UNDEFINED_SCRIPT_VARS is set to Y. For more information, see Error Handling in Scripts.

Examples

GENERATE_UNDEFINED_SCRIPT_VARS = N

:SET &x# = 12
:SET &y# = &x#

These script commands are executed successfully because &x# is defined.

GENERATE_UNDEFINED_SCRIPT_VARS = N

:SET &y# = &x#

In this case, &x# is not defined. The script command is not executed and the task is terminated at generation.

GENERATE_UNDEFINED_SCRIPT_VARS = Y

:SET &y# = &x#

In this case, the script command is executed and the error occurs at runtime. All previous script commands are executed correctly.
Restart required: No
