Global variable named "i"

[Bill Chan]

Hi,

When a global variable with the name "i" is defined, objects from the library cannot be dragged out and the objects in the model cannot be connected together using A-key or S-key. Although "i" is not a good name for global variable, the user may expect a warning message.

Thanks.

i is a command of flexsim. If you define i in global variables you overload this function and the original i will not work!

i<no parentheses>

Description: For developer use. This command is used only in event functions. It is used to reference the object that was passed to the value of 0 is) command as the involved object. Example:string involvedname = getname(i);

This sets involvedname to the name of the object that was passed to value of 0 is) as the involved object. (copy from command documentation)
