#167 Accessing an array w/o [] crashes

[Charlie Hewett]

If you define an array, and then attempt to access it
without the brackets "[]", the program will crash.
For instance, if you define a variable as follows:

Character c[5]

and then use it somewhere without the brackets:

SET d = c

the program will crash.

This should be caught by the compiler. Otherwise, the
program just crashes and you have no idea where the
error is coming from.

SCL now correctly reports an error if the subscripts for an
array variable are omitted ("Missing Array Subscript").

The problem was that SCL was going through some 'end of
subscript parsing' checks using data that was only set up
after parsing an opening "[".

Changes made to:
msglib/shrmsg.mc
scl/scl_chk_routines.c
scl/scl_act_routines.c
scl/scl_sub_tbl.tpa

Fixed in CVS (1.1 series only)
