<td colspan="5" class="print">In the following examples the standard
leaves it open whether the assignments are allowed and if so what would
be the meaning.<br />
MyBitStringA := '010'B;<br />
MyBitStringA[1] := '11'B;<br />
<br />
MyBitStringB := '1'B;<br />
MyBitStringB[4] := '1'B;<br />

MyBitStringC := ''B;<br />
MyBitStringC[0] := '1'B;<br />
<br />
Proposed resolution, all three cases should be disallowed. The index
shall be limited to greater or equal than 0 and smaller than the length
of the string on the lhs. The element to be assigned has to be a string
of length exactly 1 and it has to be of the same kind as the string on
the lhs.<br />
<br />
This applies to bitstring, hexstring, octetstring, charstring, and
universal charstring. It does NOT apply to record of, set of, and
array.<br />
