[Gambas-user] Need to pass a string by ref

I'm finding not being able to pass simple datatypes by reference really 
annoying.  I need to create a function that returns a boolean but also 
returns a string.  In VB I would pass in a string by reference.  I've 
tryed to pass in a string array but I can't seem to get the syntax 
correct.  Can someone help me out.

Private Sub foo()

    Dim strS[2] as String

    strS[0] = "Some String"
    strS[1] = ""

     if foo2(strS[]) THEN
       ' do some stuff
    End If
End

private FUNCTION foo2(strString[] as string) AS Boolean

    strS[1] = "Some other string"

    Return TRUE
End
