Is it possible to modify shared struct array in a function.

[Sudhi]

I have a situation, where i want to modify a shared variable in a 
function. Something like below

struct Company
{
     string name;
     string location;
}

struct Racks
{
     int number;
     int location;
}

struct Metadata
{
     string name;
     Company[] companies;
     Racks[] racks;
}

struct Item
{
     Metadata met;
     int count;
}

shared (Item) item

void main()
{
    updateMetadata()
}

void updateMetadata()
{
    Company company;
    company.name = "Hello";
    company.location = "Bangalore";
    item.met.companies ~= company;
}

Compiler throws me error in last line for appending as below.

"cannot append type Metadata to type shared(Metadata[])".

Please let me know if there is a way to acheive this.

Thanks,
Sudhi
