          Priority: P3
            Bug ID: 120069
          Assignee: ooo-issues@incubator.apache.org
           Summary: [StarBasic] Typed parameters are copied instead of
                    referenced
          Severity: major
        Issue Type: DEFECT
    Classification: Code
                OS: All
          Reporter: villeroy@t-online.de
          Hardware: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: AOO 3.4.0
         Component: code
           Product: api

Sub Test
x=-1
in_out x
print x
REM should print 13, prints -1
End Sub

Sub in_out(x as integer)
x=13
End Sub

This does not make any difference and should not since ByRef is the default:
Sub in_out(ByRef x as integer)

This makes a difference. Caller prints 13:
Sub in_out(x)

I'd consider this as a regression since it breaks old Basic macros.

--- Comment #2 from bmarcelly <ma...@club-internet.fr> ---
It also works correctly if you are consistent in _not_ declaring types:

Sub Test
x=-1
in_out x
print x
REM prints 13
End Sub

Sub in_out(x)
x=13
End Sub


IMHO the origin is same as described in Bug 64746 (classified as WONTFIX).
It is not a regression of 3.3 or 3.4, but a much older regression.

--- Comment #1 from brinzing <ol...@gmx.de> ---
with "Dim x as Integer" it the result is always 13


OPTION EXPLICIT
Sub Test()
    Dim x as Integer
    x=-1
    in_out(x)
    print x
    REM prints 13 in OO 3.2 / AOO 3.4
End Sub

Sub in_out(x as integer)
    x=13
End Sub
