!topic  Arrays for lists need strong typing

!discussion

The use of array types for lists is acceptable, but subtyping
conventions are insufficient to preclude a large number of errors that
could be caught at compile time.

 Add strong typing to the array types to catch design errors
 at compile time.

!resolution  Referred to the Toolkit (secondary) layer.
!date 97-03-26
!Notes

ASIS currently has strong types that are composed of heterogenous list
elements -- without adding undue complexity.  Users desiring strong
typing for their array types for lists can easily implement this
capability as a toolkit (secondary) layer.
