Characteristics
Persistent Data
Persistent Data means that you can stop your app or restart your Q-Server without loosing any data. If the object is not persistent it only stores data for you while the app is running. The Static String or Static Number have that behaviour for example.
Multi-Value
Multi-Value means that you can store more than one piece of data.
Shareable
Shareable means that you can access the same type of data by giving your objects the same name. This is for example very useful when working with Arrays.

All Array related objects have the shareable functionality, which means you can refer to a specific array by giving the object the same name.
Array Builder is creating an array therefore doesn’t have the shareable functionality at the moment. |
