Problem Note 14881: Specifying the second dimension of an array starting at zero may result in ERROR: Array subscript out of range

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It
When the second dimension of an array starts at zero, as in:

  array zzz(0:12,0:12) z001-z169;

the following error message may be generated:

  ERROR: Array subscript out of range at line nnn column xxx.

The problem occurs only on Linux on Itanium, HPUX on Itanium, and
Windows on Itanium.

To circumvent the problem, change the range to not start at zero, for
example, 1:13.
