SysLib Customizations

New to Analytica 6.5

This is an esoteric feature that exists primarily for the internal developers of Analytica itself. It is not intended for use by end-users, although as an Analytica user you could use this to augment/customize your own installation of Analytica if you were sufficiently motivated. It is not a supported feature and could be subject to change in future releases.

SysVar SysLib_Customizations

SysLib_Customizations is a special system module that contains customizations added from the Analytica.ini and SysLibraries.ini start-up files. The contents are not saved with your model, and remain when models are closed or new models are re-opened. The contents cannot be altered after initialization.

The module makes it possible to add certain permanent features and functions to desktop Analytica that are written in the Analytica programming language, and without requiring the author to modify the compiled code.

The module is similar to the Orphans module, which is also a special system module. They differ in the following ways:

  • Orphans is cleared whenever a model is closed. SysLib_Customizations content remains.
  • When you save your model, the contents of neither is saved. In this respect, they are the same.
  • You can change the contents of Orphans while your model is running (which is useful for things you don't want saved with your model). You cannot change the contents of SysLib_Customizations -- these can only be set from Analytica.ini and SysLibraries.ini
