Android Question parameters in subs

Hi All,

I have what may be a fundamental question to most avid b4a developers but I was wondering if the following code would update the byte array buff1 and if the code is correct. If not for a byte array would it update a basic type such as int or string etc?

sub check
dim buff1() as byte

checkthis (buff1)
msgbox(buff1(1),"Test")
end sub

sub checkthis(buff2() as byte)
buff2(0)=56
buff2(1)=99
end sub

The call should be
buff1 = checkthis(buff1)

The sub must also specify the return type eg:
Sub checkthis(buff2() as byte) as byte
buff2(0) = 56
buff2(1) = 99
return buff2
end sub
