Problem with lists => parameter?

[sergelaurent]

#I have variable containing :
#array set toto [list {0} {} {1} {tom tim tam} {2} {fom fim fam}]

#I am using a function where I would like to use toto as an #input parameter!!!

proc essai {toto}{
...........
}

essai $toto
#When executing this command, I got an error message telling #me that it can't read toto as it is an array!!!!

So, can someone tell me how I can pass toto as a parameter?

Hi

As far as I know, arrays can not be passed directly, only with [tt]upvar[/tt], like this :

array set toto [list {0} {} {1} {tom tim tam} {2} {fom fim fam}]

proc essai {argument} \
{
  upvar $argument local
  puts "From the proc : $local(1)"
}

puts "From outside : $toto(1)"

essai toto

Alternatively, lists can be passed and the array set stuff done in the proc.
