The code that should not compile, but does

The thing[] array should be inaccessible outside of the if statement.

Local a=1

If a=1
	Local thing:String[4]
	thing[0]="sometext"
	Print "OK..."
EndIf

Print thing[0]+"!"

Incorrect. That is the behavior of non-Strict/non-SuperStrict.

Try this, for example:

SuperStrict ' Or Strict

Local a:Int = 1

If a=1
	Local thing:String[4]
	thing[0]="sometext"
	Print "OK..."
End If

Print thing[0]+"!"

Tut tut... who's still not using (at least) Strict ? :-p

Nevermind, I found a separate error; my variable was declared twice.

Regardless, you should be using Strict, if not SuperStrict.

Interestingly, you can't do that in NON-strict, but can in Strict :-)

Good :

SuperStrict

Local a:Int

For Local i:Int = 0 To 10

	Local a:Int

Next

Bad :

Local a:Int

For Local i:Int = 0 To 10

	Local a:Int

Next

... because in non-strict, there's no "local scope", as such.

:-p
