$Static

Metacommand to change the way arrays are allocated

Syntax
   '$Static
      or
   Rem $Static

Description
   '$Static is a metacommand that overrides the behavior of $Dynamic, that 
   is, arrays declared with constant subscript ranges are fixed-length. 
   This remains in effect for the rest of the module in which '$Static is 
   used, and can be overridden with $Dynamic.  It is equivalent to the 
   Option Static statement.

Example
   ' compile with -lang fblite or qb

   #lang "fblite"

   '$dynamic
   Dim a(100)   '<<this array will be variable-length
   '$static
   Dim b(100)   '<<this array will be fixed-length

Dialect Differences
   * Only available in the -lang fblite and -lang qb dialects.

Differences from QB
   * When used inside comments it must be the first token
