What is the proper way to pass string and character arguments to an OriginC string function? For example,

int test(string str1="abcdef", char ch1='c')
{
return str1.Find( ch1 );
}

test()=;
test()=2 //as expected, but

test(abcdef,c)=;
test(ABCDEF,C)=6

This function returns the string length regardless of the arguments I use. What am I doing wrong?

test("abcdef", 'c')=;

You must indicate passing as character or as string to avoid confusion.
