STATEMENT: Public
Implemented in version 1.0
Public
The
Public
statement is used to declare a new public variable or array. You can declare more than one variable and/or array at a time. Memory is also allocated. You cannot declare a variable and assign a value to it at the same time.
The purpose of
Public
has changed with the addition of
Class
to VBScript. The recommendation is to only use
Public
inside a
Class
. A variable declared using
Public
in a
Class
becomes a public property of that
Class
. That means that other code contained in the same
Class
can access the variable.
If declared within a script, the results are the same as using
Dim
or
Private
, the public variable or array is available for use in the entire script.
Code:
<%
Public YourNumber
%>
<%
' First declare
Public YourNumber
' Then assign a value
YourNumber = 1895.405
%>
<%
Public SomeNumber, MyVar, AnotherString
%>
