Tag: ByRef

A reader asked me to clarify something about my previous post. Their question was:

When MyMethod is written as:

Sub MyMethod( i() as integer )
  i = array(10,20,30)
  system.debuglog CurrentMethodName + " i(0) = " + str(i(0)) + " i(1) = " + str(i(1)) + " i(2) = " + str(i(2))
End Sub

What happens if instead of trying to assign a new array you just alter the values in the array passed in?

Let’s talk about the difference between a “reference type” and the BYREF modifier on a passed parameter.
