Error message examples

In an assignment of the form 'Slice(X, 1) := ...', the value of the local variable

X must have an implicit dimension of be one-dimensional.

Cause

You are either:

1. assigning to a slice of a non dimensional variable.
2. assigning to a slice of a multidimensional variable.

You cannot use the Slice function with non dimensional variables. You need to specify the dimension being used to slice for a multidimensional variable.

In the following example, an assignment is made to a slice of C, a multidimensional variable.

Index A := 1..3;

Index B := 4..6;

Var C: Array(A, B, A*B);

Slice(C, A, 1) := 5;

...

Remedies

If you are trying to slice a multidimensional variable, pass in the index being used to slice the variable for assignment.
