Summary	0005088: Clarification: formal parameters are equivalent to local variables
Description	There have been compiler problems when out or inout parameters are directly been forwarded to out or inout parameters of another function: Instead of function f_NasEmu_Decvalue(inout bitstring p_EncodedNasMessage, out NAS_UL_Message_Type p_NAS_UL_Message) return integer { return decvalue(p_EncodedNasMessage, p_NAS_UL_Message); } it was necessary to declare variables and assign the parameters: ... var bitstring v_EncodedNasMessage := p_EncodedNasMessage; var NAS_UL_Message_Type v_NAS_UL_Message; var integer v_Result := decvalue(v_EncodedNasMessage, v_NAS_UL_Message); p_EncodedNasMessage := v_EncodedNasMessage; p_NAS_UL_Message := v_NAS_UL_Message; ... => There is no explicit statement in the standard to confirm that the short form is allowed
