How to define defglobals within C-code

[Rob Moolhuijsen]

Hi,

I'm using CLIPS within a C program. I would like to define some defglobals directly from C via a buffer.

Something like this:
void *theEnv;
char buffer[1000];

theEnv    = GetCurrentEnvironment();
sprintf(buffer, "(defglobal ?*var1* = 123 ?*var2* = 456)");
ParseDefglobal(theEnv, buffer);

Is this possible?

Regards,

Rob

Use the Build function, Section 4.1.7 of the Advanced Programming Guide. In your function, you'd use either

Build(buffer);

or

EnvBuild(theEnv,buffer);
