get/set state not getting rid of variables ?

Submitted by PhanLord on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 09:05

General Help

should i be able to get rid of any variables within script with get/set_state combo ?
it seems like its not working (with 4.0.0)
if i run my script twice i get "Variable redefined"

is there a way to fully reset the state of the engine including any variables.

in my program i run/eval() same script over and over (from multiple threads potentially)
and would like for each run to be independent of each other.
