The command declaration is incorrect, it should be: varvalue = GetVariableValue([VARIABLE/s variable]) If the variable is not specified it will retrieve the current variable. If there is none it will return '0' in '.result'. Code: >>> NewVariable('my_var', 'some_value')
>>> print GetVariableValue('VARIABLE', 'my_var')['.result'] some_value Note: the example is one of the cases where the variable does not need to be specified. However, to avoid unnecessary hair pulling it is recommended to always specify the variable. | |
