Java variables

Local variables

Local variables are declared within a specific mapping function or block and have limited scope, accessible only within that block. They are typically used for temporary storage of intermediate results or values needed for specific calculations within the mapping logic.

Global variables

Global variables have broader scope and they are accessed from anywhere within the mapping project. They are useful for storing data that must be shared across multiple mapping functions or blocks, enabling seamless communication and data exchange between different parts of the mapping logic.

You can use both local and global Java variables in the IEC Mapper to build sophisticated mapping rules and transformations that meet your specific integration requirements. You can use these variables to implement custom business logic and algorithms, enabling you to tailor the mapping process to suit the unique needs of your integration projects.
