Method Get():varPut()

Assigns a value to the associated variable.

:varPut( <xValue> ) --> xValue

<xValue> is the value to be assigned to the associated variable.

:varPut() returns the value returned by the data code block.

This method assigns <xValue> to the associated variable by evaluating the data code block, passing as an argument the value <xValue>. Calling <varPut() is equivalent to the following expression: Eval( oGet:block, xValue ). If no argument is passed to <varPut() or if <xValue> is NIL, the data code block is not evaluated and the method returns NIL. Otherwise, the return value of :varPut() is identical to the return value of the data code block.
