Version ABIJM 93v- 2014-07-21, we can't use typeset -c to copy an array into a type:
ksh -c 'typeset -T x_t=( typeset -a ar ; function grab { typeset -c _.ar=$1 ; } ; ) ; function foo { nameref c=$1 ; x_t c.i ; nameref i=c.i ; typeset -a c.a1=( 1 2 3) ; i.grab c.a1 ;} ; compound cv ; foo cv ; print -v cv' ( typeset -a a1=( 1 2 3 ) x_t i=( typeset -C -a ar ) ) It should print: ( typeset -a a1=( 1 2 3 ) x_t i=( typeset -a ar=( 1 2 3 ) ) ) Changing the type of function from function foo to foo() is a workaround, but for the final production script we need local variables.
