Need help on how to import Editing logic function from different feature studio

Hi,
I am trying to call editing logic function from other feature studio to current feature studio as shown below. It seems not working & i see nothing in old definition. Please help me on how to import it. Thanks.

export function fromCurrentFS(context, id, oldDefinition, definition, isCreating, specifiedParameters, hiddenbodies) returns map
{
          fromOldFS(context, id, oldDefinition, definition, isCreating, specifiedParameters, hiddenbodies);
          return definition;
}

    You need to make sure fromOldFS is declared with an export in the other feature studio and that other feature studio is imported into the current one without a namespace (if the import has a namespace, the same namespace must be used when calling fromOldFS).

    Thanks for the reply. It solved after initializing the definition, 
              definition=fromOldFS(context, id, oldDefinition, definition, isCreating, specifiedParameters, hiddenbodies);
              return definition;

    That's because FeatureScript is pass-by-value, not pass-by-reference :)
