Local Procedure

prototyper

Whats the difference between a Local procedure and a non-local procedure. (IE "local" property of procedure = yes).
Does it so something like free memory or objects when its complete ? (just curious :-k )

No, it just limits if the function is visible from other objects or not (if you can call it from outside the object).

Thanks.

Not being able to see it from outside the object is what bought my attention to it being local.
I guess if theres no difference it should be ok to remove the Local=yes so that I can use the function from outside.

in c# or c++ it's for example private {} (local = yes) or public{} (local = no)

It depends, the function can use some global variables which are set in other function and may be using it fro outside can result in wrong functionality, but all depends on the function itself.
