Retrieving variable value from variable handle (axl.*)

skillprogramme

Hi!

I am having problems retrieving the value of a variable handle with the axl-functions.

Example:

 

data_session = ( axlCreateSession "data_session" )

data_sdb = axlSetMainSetupDB( data_session "data.sdb" )

foreach( param cadr( axlGetVars( data_sdb ) )

varHandle = axlGetVar( data_sdb param )

)

So, when you have the variable handle (varHandle in this case), how to retrieve its value? I can't find any axl-function that does it. When you use the axlPutVar you are allowed to give the value of the variable along with it, but I can't find any way to actually read the value. I am relatively new to SKILL, so please excuse me if there's a very simple solution to this. 

Thanks in advance
Max

    Sorry Andrew,

    I immediately realized that the view being opened was "schematic" whereas it should be "adexl".

    Regards,
