Hi,  
  
I need to know when a persistent variable is saved to the fbd file. When its value changes? At the end of the build? Even if the build failed?  
  
Thanks in advance.

Aaaaah! I was looking for a fbd file. There’s no .fbd file but .fbv files. The documentation needs a little fix.  
  
Regards.
