Dean,
I am not sure that this is correct what you write about global variables.
As far as I know, the followoing is correct:
- 32 global variables are only valid WITHIN one program slot.
- Within this slot, all tasks, functions and subroutines can use them.
- As soon as you switch to another program slot, that program can define 32 new
variables.
See the following example for your statement:
SLOT 1:
int globvar1 = 7;
int globvar2 = 0;
task main () {
globvar2 = globvar2 + 5;
SelectProgram (4}; // program 4 = slot 5
}
SLOT 5:
int globvar1;
int globvar2;
task main () {
SetUserDisplay (globvar1, 0);
Wait (100);
SetUserDisplay (globvar2, 0);
Wait (100);
}
If you are right, the program in slot 5 should display 7 and afterwards 5.
As I said - I am not sure but can't try this out at the moment. If you do,
please let us know.
Best regards
Bernd
