I'm trying (sigh) to convert a program from FBII to FB^3.

The program contains the following declarations...

_maxFace     = 8                                  '8 faces
_maxEdge     = 6                                  '6 edges per face
.
.
.
DIM as int faceCubes(_maxFace,_maxEdge,4)

and, later, the statment...

def blockfill(@faceCubes(0,0,0), sizeof(faceCubes), 0)

When compiled I get the error message

Error: Variable 'FACECUBES' has not been DIM'ed.
in file build_data.¼:BUILD_DATA.MAIN at line 283 in EntryPoint
€def blockfill(@faceCubes(0,0,0), sizeof(faceCubes€), 0)

I find this difficult to understand since faceCubes has in fact, been
DIM'ed.
What gives?

I know I can do

def blockfill(@faceCubes(0,0,0),
              (_maxFace+1)*(_maxEdge+1)*(4+1)*sizeof(int),
              0)

but the compiler must certainly know how to do this for me and I prefer the
more compact statement.
