Local in another function?

[Immolation]

Is there a way to "pass" a local in a function to another one?

Thanks

Yes, by using a global variable.
Or using vJASS I believe you can do it - but I don't know how.

EDIT: There's usually a way to bypass it, though. (For example when using unit groups.)
-Show us your trigger and we might be able to help.

1) Arrays.
2) Structs.
3) Depending on how you use the function, you could give it parameters. This solution wont work with callback functions.
4) Calls are executed within the thread, so you can access event responses in all functions, not just the thread function:

function DisplayName takes nothing returns nothing
     call BJDebugMsg(GetUnitName(GetTriggerUnit()))
endfunction

function Actions takes nothing returns nothing
     call DisplayName()
endfunction

function ...
     local trigger trig = CreateTrigger()
     
     call TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ(trig,EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_DEATH)
     call TriggerAddAction(trig,function Actions)
endfunction
