Repository.Variable.AddVariable

Member of: SynthesisAPI10.Repository

Saves a new cVariable object to the current project. Returns a Boolean value; when true, indicates a successful save.

If a variable with the same name already exists in the current project, the application will automatically increment the name. For example, if "Var1" already exists, the new variable might be renamed to "Var2," "Var3," etc.

Syntax

.Variable.AddVariable(var)

Parameters

var

The cVariable object to be added. (Required)

Example

  Dim MyRepository As New Repository
  ... 


 'Create a new variable. The following example creates a variable named "MyNewVariable." 
 Dim newVariable As New cVariable
 NewVariable.Name = "MyNewVariable"

 'Add the new variable to project #1. The variable will be visible in the Synthesis repository upon refresh. 
 MyRepository.Project.SetCurrentProject(1)   
 Call MyRepository.Variable.AddVariable(NewVariable)
