Renaming global variables

You can rename each instance of a global variable. To get a list of all global variables found in a particular ZIETrans project take the following steps:
  1. Select Window > Show View > ZIETrans Global Variables from the ZIETrans menu bar. The ZIETrans Global Variables view will be placed right below the Palette view.
  2. Click on a project in the ZIETrans Projects view to populate the ZIETrans Global Variables view with all the global variables found in the selected project's macros and events. If you select a different project, the ZIETrans Global Variables view will be updated. The content is refreshed when a macro or event of the selected project is added, deleted, or edited.
  3. You can rename a global variable through the ZIETrans Global Variables view by right clicking the global variable to edit the name. You can also double-click on the macros or events listed under each global variable to open them. When you create or edit the macros or events, the ZIETrans Global Variables view will automatically be updated.
Note: Renaming global variables is only supported for global variables defined in macros and events; therefore, the ZIETrans Global Variables view will only display those global variables. Renaming global variables will not rename the global variables in business logic, transformations or elsewhere in your ZIETrans project.
