`reflect.Value.Bool()` is behaving correctly, see https://go.dev/play/p/E-wfS9F0Sve . So the issue must be with the calling code, if the tests have been written correctly.

That's not the same issue as https://github.com/go2hx/go2hx/issues/153#issuecomment-1420278839 @PXshadow , which would be: ```go package main import ( "fmt" ) func main() { println(fmt.Sprintf("%#v", map[string]int{"a": 1})) } ```

Which is not to say that outputting a map containing a named type might not be a separate problem...

This is great news @PXshadow , well done! And the new "trench line" issue "only" looks like getting the correct "Go" name printed out, when it is from a local...

That would by my solution too @PXshadow .

My first reaction is that "Ref\" should be an enum with two states - "refNull\" or "refValue\". ... but there is probably more to it than that ... so I'll...

Example code to illustrate the idea is [here](https://try.haxe.org/#B1B4eA00) @PXshadow . ...still don't know if it goes some way to answering the question you were asking.
