Hi!
----
Is there a reason that ksh93 (ast-ksh.2008-02-02) obmits empty arrays in
the compound variable view ?
For example the following script...
-- snip --
typeset filename="foo/bar"
typeset scan=(
typeset -A records
)
scan.records[${filename}]=(
typeset filename="$filename"
typeset -a comments
)
print -r -- "${scan}"
-- snip --
... prints:
-- snip --
(
typeset -A records=(
[foo/bar]=(
filename=foo/bar
)
)
)
-- snip --
... while we expected:
-- snip --
(
typeset -A records=(
[foo/bar]=(
filename=foo/bar
typeset -a comments=()
)
)
)
-- snip --
Why is the "comments" array missing in this case ?
----
Bye,
Roland
