What if there was a plug-ins developed that could act as a read/write store.
A "variable manager" front end could be developed to create various types, simple numbers, strings, arrays etc. (version1 could do simple types)
In any particular job, any plug-in (which would be identified by name) could act as a (optionally persistent) read/write store, and have a locking policy.
Any other job running at same or later time would have access to anything written there. (Shared memory?)
Now I must admit Ive never developed a plug-in (and am not sure of the details) but this doesnt sound too complex and imho would be very helpful.
Im open to criticism/ideas from those of you familiar with developing plug-ins (, and any anyone else of course
![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
If this appears to be useful I could go away and find out about developing one of these.
