Function call that mutates an array.

[jshudson]

I have a program with a com object that expects a variant which the function populates as an array. Is this supported with this software? If so, how do I go about it? I have tried declaring an empty variable, an empty array, and an empty winax Variant all of which yield the original variable with no changes.

Thank you for any help.

I was able to solve the problem by passing a new instance of the winax Variant with a 'byref' type with a reference to a previously existing variant variable:

let ax = new ActiveXObject ('Example.Application');
let existing = new Variant();
ax.PopulateArray(new Variant(existing, 'byref'));
//the existing variable is correctly populated
