An autosized string variable that is passed by reference to a function is not autosized within the called function. If the function attempts to assign a value whose length is greater than the current size of that parameter, run-time error 401 occurs
Yet, when I tried this situation everything worked ok even if an autosized string was passed by reference and was resized inside the function.
prototype xxx(byref string, byref string);
a = "a"; b = "b"; xxx(a,b); // Will assign larger string constants into the arguments
So, should I adapt my code to the above statement or not?
Interesting fact, this sentence is also contained in the IS2009 documentation but I can't producude the mentioned error either. This limitation would be really bad.
Would be great when a IS developer could say a word about this.
