Attributes, Specifiers, and Effects

Specifiers

The following specifiers determine how you can interact with SetFocus in your programs. For the complete list of specifiers, see the Specifiers Page.

Specifier	Meaning
`public`	The identifier is universally accessible. You can use this on modules, classes, interfaces, structs, enums, methods, and data.
`native`	Indicates that the definition details of the element are implemented in C++. Verse definitions with the `native` specifier auto-generate C++ definitions that a developer can then fill out its implementation. You can use this specifier on classes, interfaces, enums, methods, and data.

Effects

The following effects determine how SetFocus behaves in your programs. For the complete list of effects, see the Effect Specifers section of the Specifiers Page.

Effect	Meaning
`transacts`	This effect indicates that any actions performed by the function can be rolled back. The transacts effect is required any time a mutable variable (`var`) is written. You’ll be notified when you compile your code if the `transacts` effect was added to a function that can’t be rolled back. Note that this check is not done for functions with the `native` specifier.
`no_rollback`	This is the default effect when no exclusive effect is specified. The `no_rollback` effect indicates that any actions performed by the function cannot be undone and so the function cannot be used in a failure context. This effect cannot be manually specified.
