Arrays in LC [was: Re: [TAO] value() to obtain pointer functionality]

[jbv at souslelogo.com]

I was thinking :
set the indexedarray of myArray to true
set the indexedarray of myArray to false

but then what happens when you switch that property from true
to false for the same array within a handler ?

Same question for "{}" notation : what happens when the same
handler contains these 2 successive lines :
  add 1 to myArray{10}
  add 1 to myArray[10]
