Hello,

 

 I am new to programming and I have doubts that maybe it could be insignificant but are important for me to understand. I would like to ask what is the difference between a scope session and a global session, it will be fine if someone can give an example.

 

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Nelly de la.s Casas

Hello,

 

It's not the CAS session itself that is session-scope or global scope, it's about the CAS tables created in that session.

 

Remember session-scope tables can only be seen by a single CAS session and are dropped from CAS when that session is terminated, while global-scope tables can be seen publicly and will not be dropped when the CAS session is terminated.
