SharedScript [Solved]

[atout66]

Hi to all,

What about SharedScript in LC ? I've seen an old post from 2010 on the forum, but 4 years later, is there a way to assign one script to multi btt or fld, or any object within the project ?

Thanks in advance, Jean-Paul.

look in the documentation at the "function" and "on" control structures. I think that is what you are looking for.

Hi Jean-Paul,

every handler and function that is in the card/stack/library stack script IS in already "shared"!
This is a question of cleverly using the "message path". A good read about this topic:

And then there are "behaviors", which you can apply to one or more objects.
Or do you mean something else?


Best

Klaus

Thanks to both of you for your help.
From the link provided by Klaus, I realize that in fact, what I was used to call a <sharedScript> in TBK is called <Behaviors> in LC.
However, the logical is the same; so great

Kind regards, Jean-Paul.

There are several ways to share code among objects:
- Any mainstack script is accessible by any object in the stack file
- Backscripts and libraries are available to all stacks
- FrontScripts can be used to global preprocess messages
- Behaviors can be used to provide a single script across any number of specific objects
