Bill,
Have you tried this using value("getValue()",...) instead of
value(getValue,...)? I think getValue is interpreted as a string.
Probably, this isn't a bug but just how xTalk languages are supposed to
work.

Folks:
I think I’ve found a bug when trying to call a function and get a return value
out of the message path.
I make a stack with a group containing 2 buttons, and a 3rd button to call the
function>
Script of calling button
on mouseUp
breakpoint
put value("getValue",group "myGroup" of card "myCard") into tVal
end mouseUp
Script of group named “myGroup”
function getValue
return "This is my value"
end getValue
When I click the calling button, I get “getValue” returned. The actual return
value of the function is not returned.
I’ve tested this in 7.1.2-r3 and 8.0.0 DP15.
I’m using Mac OSX, El Capitan.
Is it a bug?
