Best way to initialize global variables?

[Bluscre]

There are several ways to set Variables and i want your opinion which one's the best. If you know of any other way i forgot, please tell me and i add it :^)

• Code: Select all

  convertNull(global_variable, newList("default", "values"));

• Code: Select all

  if (global_variable == null) { global_variable = false; }

@Desmanto, @Martin looking forward to your pro opinions

I just go to the global variable and create the GloVar there Just kidding

I use also the same, with slight different style

Code: Select all

if(global_variable == null)
  global_variable = false;

For single line script after if() with no else, we can remove the curly braces.

Be careful thought, sometimes empty GloVar doesn't always mean it is null. Sometimes it is '' (two single quote). If it is that case, convertNull() will fail, global_variable == null also give false. It should be global_variable == '' which gives true.
