In addition to the local variables ( defined in a SIL SIL™ program ) and issue variables (Variable Resolutionresolution), there are environment variables. These are global constants you can access in any SIL SIL™ program using the the silEnv routine. |
Declaring Environment Variables
To be able to use these variables, you must have to follow two steps:
1. Environment variables must be defined in a special file named sil.properties. This file must reside is placed in the same directory designated as sil.home (i.e. for instance the one that contains all your scripts). You must create this file manually.

VAT=0.24 |
...
2. Retrieve the value in the SIL SIL™ program and then use it just like any other variable. Make sure you cast it to your designated type (in our case, a number).
| Code Block |

number VAT = silEnv("VAT");
number price = customfield_10019;
print("VAT is:" + (price * VAT)); |
