Hello, I'm trying to create multiple applications in PLC Engineering 2.4.1 running on a single CtrlX Core for testing purposes. I can get them to run, and now I'm trying to determine how to share data between these two applications. I know I can put variables in my first application in the Data Layer using the Symbol Configuration, then I can make a watchlist of those variables, then I can setup a program in the second application to read them, but this seems like a lot of extra steps to share data between applications. Is there another method to do this that I'm unaware of? I was hoping I could create a GVL at the root of the 'PLC Logic' part of the Project Tree that both applications could access, as this seems like the easiest way to share data from one PLC application to another. However, I'm only able to create another Application there at the moment. EDIT: I searched and found that you can create a GVL in the POUs view in PLC Engineering. However, when I write a value to one of the variables in this list from one application and then try to read it in the second application, the second application reads 0. It is like each application has its own instance of the GVL that it uses, which is not very useful.
