Adding code module variables other than strings?

[Fergal]

When you "Insert New Module Variable" into a code module, it is automatically added as a string.

Is it possible to add a new module variable of another type, e.g. add an int module variable?

Thanks!

Hi Fergal,

Module variables are always strings, because data connectors currently supports only string-based data. In other words, there is currently no way to create module variables other than strings.

Thanks odklizec! I have been using Parse to convert those string variables and was curious as to whether there was an easier way to do it.
