GlobalKillEnabled
Synopsis
[Miscellaneous] GlobalKillEnabled=n
n is either 1 (true) or 0 (false). The default value is 1.
Description
This parameter has been retained for compatibility, but should not be used when building new applications.
Deprecated. When GlobalKillEnabled is enabled (n = 1), a KILL of an unsubscripted global is allowed, so you can kill all subscripts of a global with a single kill instead if killing them individually. When this parameter is not enabled, the KILL results in a <PROTECT> error
Changing This Parameter
On the Compatibility page of the Management Portal (System Administration > Configuration > Additional Settings > Compatibility), in the GlobalKillEnabled row, click Edit. Select GlobalKillEnabled to enable this setting.
Instead of using the Management Portal, you can change GlobalKillEnabled in the Config.MiscellanousOpens in a new tab class (as described in the class reference) or by editing the CPF with a text editor.
To change this parameter for a single process only (as opposed to instance-wide), use the GlobalKillDisabled()Opens in a new tab method of the %SYSTEM.ProcessOpens in a new tab class. Note that this is the inverse of GlobalKillEnabled. See the class reference for details.
