Dear folks, How could I define a macro that modifies a scalar variable got in param list?
This obviously does not work: /tmp$ cat macrotest [% MACRO seven(param) BLOCK %] [% SET param = '7' %] ! var inside = [% var %] param inside = [% param %] [% END %] ! starting... [% SET var = 3 %] ! var before = [% var %] [% seven(var) %] ! var after = [% var %] (wanted 7 here) /tmp$ tpage macrotest ! starting... ! var before = 3 ! var inside = 3 param inside = 7 ! var after = 3 (wanted 7 here) /tmp$ I do understand what happens but I have no idea how to modify the code. Actually I would need a macro that acts like a subroutine and returns a scalar value but I guess this is not possible. Therefore I tried to modify named parameters but they seems to be localised too. Any hint? (Except usage of Perl subroutines.)
