Hello.
Tried to make a wrapper increment, but turned out endlessly cycle.

This function will hang interpreter CEngine tightly.
So much so that it would be long to kill the process ..

(note: sorry if repeated, all the pages look not possible)

Code:

a = 0
i = 0
while i < 10 do
    print(string.format("test: %d",inc2(a,i)))
    if a > 10 then
      break
    end
    -- a = a + 1 -- DEBUG: KILL CYCLE
    inc(i,1) -- <- CRASHED!
end

-- FUNCs: increment
function inc2(arg1, arg2)
 arg1 = arg1 + arg2
 return arg1
end

function inc(arg1)
 arg1 = arg1 + 1
 return arg1
end


There are solutions to this problem?

instead of
Code:

inc(i,1)

do
Code:

i=inc(i,1)


As far as I know lua does not support "call by reference" in function parameters (except table objects)
