#+PROPERTY: var myvar="original"
* Overview
I would like to test a global variable assignment (just done here above) and
local ones (on the code block itself). It seems that the global value is not
"known". Though, maybe, I don't understand it fully yet.
* Test code
** Using the local var
#+srcname: test-local
#+begin_src sh :var myvar="canada-dry"
echo $myvar
#+end_src
#+results: test-local
: canada-dry
** Using the global var
I'm not passing anymore a local value, hence expecting the "global" value to
be used:
#+srcname: test-global
#+begin_src sh :var anothervar="canada-dry"
echo $myvar
#+end_src
#+results: test-global
(no output)
Am I understanding correctly how it works / should work?
Best regards,
Seb

I think so and it works for me. Does C-c C-c on the #+PROPERTY: line and
reevaluating the block help?

Thanks for testing.

Of course, I just missed that. Thanks, and sorry for the noise...
