a string reference, not a string returned as local copy The explanation in the help for this case is not very clear. But after you explained, it is now clear.

Operator [] (String index) ..... Usage: result = lhs [ rhs ] ..... Parameters: lhs : The string ( a string reference, not a string returned as local copy ). rhs : A zero-based offset from the first character. .....

The string index operator ('[]') applies only to references.
Otherwise in your case, instead of:
s[n]
you can use:
asc(s, n+1)

See the Operator [] (String index) documentation page.

Should we now disallow 'SIZEOF(array_name)' and even more so 'LEN(array_name)' ? ..... Also remember to take into account at the same time the bug report: #821 LEN() and SIZEOF() should not be allowed when used with bitfields Example grouping together all these cases of inconsistent LEN/SIZEOF valu...

How to optimize the size of image buffers: Screenres 640, 480, 32 Dim As Integer x, y, i x = 37: y = 37 Dim As Any Ptr DrawBall = ImageCreate( 75, 75, RGB(255, 255, 255)) '' 75*75 pixels from index : 0 to 74 CIRCLE DrawBall, (x, y), 37, RGB(0, 255, 0),,,,F ' Green '' circle from index : 37-37=0 to 3...

Minimum code without 'Put' : Dim As Integer x = 40, y = 40 Screenres 640, 480, 32 For i As Integer = 1 To 140 ScreenLock CIRCLE (x, y), 37, RGB(0, 0, 0),,,,F '' erase the previous ball x += 4 '' move the ball 4 pixels at a time CIRCLE (x, y), 37, RGB(0, 255, 0),,,,F '' draw the ball ScreenUnlock Sle...

With 'Put', the default method used to draw the image to the destination buffer is XOR.
To erase the ball, use rather:
put(x, y),EraseBall, Pset

Alternatively, you can use a non-static member property (which accesses the static integer member) and call it on any instance opportunity, or on a null pointer or null reference to the 'Type' (provided the property body does not use 'This' ). Type Gobject Public: Declare Property Prop1(Byval I As ...

But this new feature seems to be not very easy, mainly because of a parser problem. Example of the parser syntax problem for STATIC PROPERTIES without index parameter: There is a syntax ambiguity between one of property result assignment syntaxes inside the get-property body and the set-property cal...

A "feature request" is already filled in since 2013:
#279 Add the static properties feature

No, it alsp works.

With the latest fixes, Put# now works with arrays again (thanks).

In the south perhaps?

Yes.
Last night fixes (around 3:30am for us) arrived too late for the daily builds (around 2:00am for us).
We have to wait until next night.
