Clearing a static array - seg fault

[Brian G <brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Should clearing a static array in a structure behave the same as a 
dynamic multi dimensional array and set all values to zero.

Right now it just segfaults. As the structure is not in normal variable 
space, but fill(0) works fine.

Perhaps clear should call fill(0) in case of static arrays.

Example:

#!/usr/bin/env gbs3
' Gambas Script File Created 01/26/2025 11:00:30

Public Struct mystruct
    myArray[100] As Byte
End Struct

Public Sub Main()

    Dim myArray As New Byte[100]

    Print "Hello world", myArray.count
    myArray.Clear()
    Print "Hello world", myArray.count

    Dim a As New Mystruct
    a.myArray = Byte[].FromString("this message")
    Print a.myarray.tostring()
    a.myArray.Clear()

Quit 0
Catch
Error "Script Error >";; error.text & "\n" & error.where
End

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

output from runtime :

Hello world     100
Hello world     0
this message
free(): invalid pointer
gbs3 Error : Script had Segmentation fault, Code=6

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
