Summary0000148: Failed assignments leave behind empty mapping entries.
DescriptionFalls das schon bekannt ist, bitte ich um Entschuldigung:

map = ([1:2]); map[0][5]=1;

Fuehrt bei mir dazu, dass in map ein Key fuer den ersten Index angelegt wird
(also Effekt wie ein map[0]=0), obwohl die Zuweisung map[0][5]=1 einen
Fehler ausloest (Index out of bounds).

(map[0])[5]=1 verhaelt sich uebrigens nicht so.

---------------------------------
The problem is in how the expressions are parsed. In 'map[0][5] = 1', the
'map[0]' is parsed as possible lvalue, thus generating the opcodes
'push_indexed_lvalue', followed by 'index_lvalue'.

On the other hand '(map[0])[5]' parses the 'map[0]' as normal rvalue, leading
to the opcode sequence 'index' followed by 'index_lvalue'.

Given the obscurity in the parser when it comes to generating lvalues, I don't
know how to fix this yet.

This is tricky.

In map[0][5] = 1, map[0] doesn't have to be an lvalue, and parsing it as an rvalue should fix the problem.

However, this idea fails for ranges, so map[0][5..5] = ({1}) would still create a new mapping entry.
