Procedur with string pointer as argument

[Wolfram]

Why is this not working?
How can I use a pointer of a string in this case?

Code: Select all

Procedure.s Test(*Path.string)
Debug *Path\s  ;Memmory Error
EndProcedure

file.s ="ABCD"
 
Debug Test(@file)

This works.

Code: Select all

xfile.string
xfile\s ="ABCD"
 
Debug Test(@xfile)

It's not a direct pointer.

Code: Select all

Procedure.s Test(*Path)
  Protected *s.string = @*Path
  Debug *s\s
EndProcedure

file.s ="ABCD"
 
Debug Test(@file)
