Sometimes I need to pass arrays by value, not by reference. So, I want to create tool for cloning arrays.

This code works:

Code:

      DEF PROC_CloneArray(Array#(), RETURN ArrayClone#())
      LOCAL ArrayLength%
      ArrayLength% = DIM(Array#(),1)
      DIM ArrayClone#(ArrayLength%)
      ArrayClone#() = Array#()
      ENDPROC

Can I recommend that you don't use the *| style of commenting routinely, since that sort of comment is preserved in a compiled EXE and wastes space:

I wanted to do something. I wanted to do something as badly as a genie who's been let out of his bottle for the first time in a thousand years.
