unpack( ) not working (Case 26020)

bug submitted Case 26020

unpack( ) doesn’t work in latest daily build 1202

code below produces this error

‘Attempt to call field ‘unpack’ (a nil value)’

arg = { "this","is","a","test","of","the","unpack","global","function"} print( unpack( arg ) )

i just dl’d the 1202 public release, and noticed your post (with worry).  but unpack is still working fine for me w 1202.

how about testing for an unintended override somewhere? fe:

print(unpack)

print(_G.unpack)

print(rawget(_G,“unpack”))

print(unpack == rawget(_G,“unpack”))

expecting 3 identical “function: someaddress” and “true”

I tested same code in 1202 and 1135 on Mac
1202 gives me error
1135 gives expected results
will test again to make sure I didn’t make a mistake

ok retested sample code and code in project. still not working in 1202. rebooted computer and now it works in 1202. don’t know why but now working fine
