Is it possible to pass a variable by reference in javascript

Hello

Now that it's been a while and Unity 4 is out is it possible to pass a variable by reference in javascript yet as you can in C#?

Cheers

Stick, it looks like they still have not done this in Unity4

I am sure you know the workaround, just make it a small object (you can of course pass objects by reference). Hope it helps

Not explicitly. Only if the variable is already a reference type.
