Set

Syntax

Set,<%Variable%>,<NewValue>[,GLOBAL / PERMANENT] 

With this command we can change the value of a variable. If more variables are linked to this variable, then you might need to call System,RefreshVars to ensure that all variables get refreshed values and work properly.

WB076 added a new variable handling mechanisim that makes System,RefreshVars unnecessary.

Usually the variable's definition has a lifetime of the current script.

• You can make it valid for the rest of the actual build by adding the optional parameter GLOBAL
• You can make it valid for the lifetime of the project (i.e. write it's value into script.projects) by adding the optional parameter PERMANENT.

These aparameters are mutually exclusive.

Example:

Set,%workdir%,c:\myPath,GLOBAL
