7.2 Declaration editor
The declaration editor is used to declare variables of organization units and global variables, for data
type declaration and in the Watch and Receipt Manager. It offers Windows and IntelliMouse
functionalities, but requires the associated driver to do so.
The overtype mode is displayed in the status bar with OVR. Press to toggle between
overwrite and insert modes.
•
Variable declaration is supported by the use of various colours. Keywords are written in blue
letters.
•
In all editors for organization units, a horizontal screen divider separates declaration part from
body on screen. This divider can be moved as required by keeping the left mouse key
depressed.
Tip!
The most essential declaration editor commands are also available in the shortcut menu
(right mouse key or +).
Declarations as tables
Instead of the declaration editor, use menu item Project WOptions, category Editor to edit variables
as a table with the help of selecting check box Declarations as tables. ( ^ 7-18)
•
This table is arranged as a card index box with tab cards for input variables (VAR_INPUT),
output variables VAR_OUTPUT, local variables VAR and input / output variables VAR_INPUT.
•
Fields for name, address, type, initial value and comment are available for each variable.
