The '''$STATIC''' Metacommand allows the creation of STATIC(un-changeable) arrays.

|
::: REM '''$STATIC'''
|
|
|
|
|
|
* QBasic [[Metacommand]]s require a REM or apostrophy (') before them and are normally placed at the start of the main module.
|
|
* Static arrays cannot be resized. If a variable is used to size any array, it becomes [[$DYNAMIC]].
|
|
* A [[REDIM]] statement has no effect on [[$STATIC]] arrays except perhaps a [[ERROR Codes|duplicate definition error]] at the [[REDIM]] code.
|
|
* The array's type cannot be changed once [[DIM]] and a literal value sets the dimensions and element size.
|
|
* [[$STATIC]] defined program [[arrays]] cannot be [[REDIM|re-sized]] or use [[_PRESERVE]].
|
|
|
|
|
|
''Example:'' When a variable is used, the array can be resized despite $STATIC. The array becomes [[$DYNAMIC]].
