Description
The following attempt to move a local node into an associative array
fails like this:
-- snip --
typeset -C tree
function f1
{
nameref tr=$1
typeset -A tr.subtree
typeset -C node
node.one="hello"
node.two="world"
# move local note into the array
typeset -m tr.subtree["a_node"]=node
return 0
}
f1 tree
printf "%B\n" tree
exit 0
-- snip --
The output looks like this:
-- snip --
$ ksh93
varmovetest1.sh
(
(
)
ok
-- snip --
... but AFAIK it should print:
-- snip --
(
typeset -A subtree=(
[a_node]=(
one=hello
two=world
)
)
)
ok
-- snip --
