defining and using globals in an application

Hi all,

To me, once globals are defined and put with a value, their value should be
available from any stack within the application.

So far, so good.

But the problem arises where, within other stacks script, if you don't
define the required global again, the desired value is not there.

The result is the name of the global in the stack where that global was
first defined.

Not good.

 

So why aren't the values of global's, global to the application?

In other software development languages, this IS the case.

Wouldn't you want the same in LC? I would.

 

Why isn't this the case in LC?

 

Regards,

Mark Stuart
