https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=236730 Summary: YaST2 documentation for YCP Builtins does not clarify "in a new context" Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: yast2-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: odabrunz@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com In the YaST2 documentation for YCP Builtins at http://forgeftp.novell.com/yast/doc/SL10.2/tdg/Book-YaSTReference.html, the the phrase "in a new context" is used in several places. It is not really clear what this means. (My previous guess was that it means that the expression or block is executed in a scope of its own where it cannot change any program variables in other scopes, as it is done for functional programming languages. But I have been told already that this is not true. It rather means that only the variable for keys and values are "local" to the new context. Careful reading actually suggests that only the "loop variables" are "local" in the "new context". But it is not very clear.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
