Good day, The new feature, associative arrays in bash 4.0 was very useful but I can't find any way to declare them as global when declaring inside a function. By default all variables are set local when using declare and typeset and there are no other ways to declare an associative array but through the said functions.
I hope the development team will also consider adding a way in bash to declare global variables inside a function perhaps either with an option in typeset or declare like -g (same as zsh) and/or a builtin function like global as similar to local. Cheers, konsolebox
