Variables
Variables are used to prevent the same computation
being performed several times as the variable allows you to store
the values so that they can be used later. A variable represents
specific data or a value, and acts as a placeholder for that value.
Unlike a constant value, which is fixed and unchanging, a variable
can be repeatedly assigned different values. You assign a value to
a variable and the variable maintains the value until you later assign
a new value. Because of this flexibility, it is necessary for you
to declare variables before you use them. Variables can be a source
or target of a transform.
There are three variable types:
- Simple data
- Business object
- Java™ class
