How do I access variable in movieclip?

In AnimateCC I've added a clip called myClip and in it I place this code:

var myVar= true;

In te main timeline I want to access that variable so there I use this:

console.log(this.myClip.myVar);

But this keeps showing 'undefined'.

How can I read a variable from within a movieclip then?

Correct answer ClayUUID

var only declares a private variable for use by the current frame of a movieclip. To store a variable for an entire clip, use this.
