possible bug in varibale length arguments

[Hamed Rafi <Hamed.Rafi@...>]

Hi,

 

Consider the code:

function p(...)

print(...)

str=""

for a,b in ipairs(arg)do

str=str..b.." "

print(a)

end

print(str)

end

 

and then calling:

p(1,2,3,4)

 

will print the following as expected from call to print in first line

  1 2 3 4

 

 

And then returns with the following error

stdin:1: bad argument #1 to 'ipairs' (table expected, got nil)

stack traceback:

[C]: in function 'ipairs'

stdin:1: in function 'p'

stdin:1: in main chunk

[C]: ?

 

This function works fine if I remove the print(…) in the first line.

I am using lua 1.4 and tested this in Ubuntu-64 11.10 and Windows 7 64-bit

 

Can anyone help me on this  issue please?

 

Regards,

Hamed Rafi
