Global vs Local behaviour

[cyrille de brébisson]

Hello,

Note that in your function you should be able to do:
EXPORT stg;
EXPORT str(stg)
BEGIN
stg := stg+My_Program_Name.stg;
return stg;
END;

No, the parameter list will not check for globally defined variables and err on it.
That is, in some ways, the whole point of local variables, to 'override' global settings and allow you to create a function that is agnostic of what is happening in the rest of the world.

If it WAS to test for global variables, then the function/program might work on one machine and not on another as the global variable could exist on one calculator and not another, creating problems.
